I took off the stock plastic bumper cover a couple months back. I liked the look of the metal bumper underneath so I cleaned it up and hit it with some primer and paint. I got tired of looking at the ends because I though they stuck out too far and looked kind of goofy. I got bored today and stubbied it down a bit. I think it looks much better now. Here is a before and after. Im pleased with how it looks now!

It looks good Philip. I think it would look even better if you put fog lights in the fog lights holes.

Did you happen to use a high-lift jack to help you out? I heard its a great tool in situations such as that! But also can be very dangerous, too!

Yea it was wedged pretty good. My evo corner armor and fender was up against the boulder. I think if the tire didn't tear I probably would have made it. I should have used the hi-lift or my winch but to me thats pretty much like throwing in the towel lol. Next time I'm stuck like that, I will just winch out.
