The Shorty bumper’s powder coating was flawless; again, zero damage before, or during shipment. Components were straight, well put together, welded well and just sexy. I happens to be a terrible welder so I enjoy a nice weld line. Love these massive recovery hooks.
Removed the front OEM bumper. The hardest part about removing the front bumper is the frustration of removing the silly plastic clips that hold on the lower air dam and plastic trim pieces below and above the stock bumper. We just popped them out with a pry tool and disposed of them accordingly. It is possible to salvage them but to what end? After removing the plastic, the bumper comes off easily with a ½ inch bar and an 18mm socket. Give yourself 30 minutes or so.
Set the bumper on the jeep to just see how it would look.
Took it back down and installed the OEM headlights in the perfectly aligned mounts. I had to drill out the OEM light's holes a bit, but that was pretty easy and then they slid right on.
