    Only if you want to drive to Albuquerque and leave it with him for a week. He did a few welds to the unibody.

    Neither can I! We'll probably do it next week. We have some ideas for improving the departure angle as well.

    What do you all think about the paint/powdercoat color? Should I go with black, or try to compliment the body color? Black is easy to touch up, but a color would really look planned.

    I would do a darker tan for the bumpers if it were mine. Show off the bumpers without looking chopped up.
