Re: Off with new on with Old
Good decision. I like the bumpers, hate rollpans.

Re: Off with new on with Old
I'm not a fan of roll pans. The bumper look much better IMO.

Re: Off with new on with Old
Looks much better. Almost like the designers did a good job back then? Ur truck looks complete with the bumpers and grill back on.

Re: Off with new on with Old
I like it too, especially the chrome front bumper. It makes it look complete.

Re: Off with new on with Old
Did you have any issues installing the bumper brackets? Were your frame end rails cut off because of the front pan? Who's bumpers did you buy? Looks like they fit good.

Much better now. Roll pans look very dated to me.

Re: Off with new on with Old
Looks much better. Rear roll pans are ok sometimes but I never like them on the front.
