So I guess I got the second generation rear. Mine was one of them that got delayed while they sorted the steel vendor issue so I was happy to wait a couple weeks to get the right version. When I put the front on I knew they had an ACE cut into them so I had two red LEDs ready to backlight it. The pic I saw of the rear didn't so when it came I needed two more. I was pleasantly surprised. Haven't put them in yet. Still pondering what to do with the fog holes. I got some stock fogs but don't want to use the stock lamps. HID? LED? I don't want to spend a ton of cash on backup lights but I don't know if I'll be happy with stock.
I tied the red LEDs in the ACE to my rock lights.

Back from the dead!!
I have the ACE Pro Bumper I am installing this evening when in get home from work. The jeep is all ready to go with the install. I just need to know how much grinding I need to do to the frame rails to get the Led provision in the bumper to clear the rails on the Jeep?
Watched the youtube video a couple of times and see that he is just grinding down the rail a bit. Just want to make sure I get enough off before trying to set this monster on the Jeep to discover I didn't take enough off.
