Re: SNEAK PEEK for forum members

let's answer a few questions- I'm not smart enough for multi-quote so I'll try to catch up.

The bumper does use the factory brackets and that's what makes it so easy to hang and adjust. If your factory bumper is on right this bumper will drop right in place.

I would describe the plating as better than average. They're using 2 layers of nickel and 35mu of chrome. These will be warrantied against corrosion and if you care enough to hang a custom bumper than you probably care enough to keep a bumper cleaned and polished and will never have an issue.

The rear has been a bit of a debate internally and that's why it's lagging the front. As of TODAY.....it's will have an integral plate mount (not a bolt in), no bolts going through it and it should be narrowed a bit to snug the quarters rather than have an inch and a half gap like the factory. The biggest souce of contention is whether to "Outline" the plate with the plate frame or just have a recess and provision for a plate light.

For a group buy: I would be willing to do the group buy for say.....free shipping in the continental US IF we don't discuss it until they're on the way (packaging is being finalized) and we agree to a "Number" by which the GB makes sense. Giving up $40-$45 dollars a bumper on a brand new part is not ideal....but I'd do it because I love the forums and want you guys to have this stuff first.
