Presents!!
Got my src bumper, recon winch, grab handles, and gear tail gate cover in today and have to wait to Christmas to open them. This is going to be a long 25 days. Oh and I ordered from 4wd on Monday and is at my house on thurs. that's one hell of a good deal for some cyber Monday free shipping.

Haha. The wife said I can open the boxes to make sure everything is there. But then get boxed back up and wrapped. So It's just a big teaser. I am already to excited sitting at work waiting to go home. I can't imagine Christmas. I will be all of five again jumping on the bed at 7 trying to wake her up so I can open them and put it all on.

Got home pulled the huge boxes in and come to find out the box with my bumper is almost destroyed. Part of the bumper is sticking out and already scratched up. I know I can paint over it. No big deal but seriously brown? You had to destroy the box that freaking bad.
What can brown do for you?
They can really screw you package up. Damn them

Hidden cost.
Part of the hidden cost of buying bumpers etc is the shipping containers. My LoD front bumper just arrived in a wooden crate and was bolted inside with bolts that were not part of the installation kit. I know this is extra cost that is discarded but the bumper arrived in perfect condition.

OP..I'll help ya out....I got this marriage thing down
...you HAVE to install all of it NOW..NO time to waste or you won't be prepared
Reasons/Justifications:
- The winch needs the bumper....can't really refute that
- When you come across a stuck vehicle with grandma in it...you need the winch to help her get home..thus earning you bonus "sweetie" points
- The grab handles are needed because you want your family to be safe when they get all excited about the Christmas lights they just saw
- The gear tailgate cover will of course be holding all your survival gear...stove, recovery gear, zombie hatchet, and coco. The coco you could give to grandma while she is waiting on you to pull her vehicle out of the ditch with your new winch
