Bumper what do ya think?

I installed my new bumper what does everyone think, im still a little unsure yet, but im sure when my black rims come it will look better. Eventually im going to black out all chrome when done..

I think it looks awsome. Wouldn't mind one myself. Unfortunately I don't have the cash so I am going to build one. It's getting cold here so my laziness is getting the best of me. Very nice bumper though, I like it.

I like it, that is the look I will be going for when I try my hand at building one.

Thanks guys, like i said before was a little worried cause it seems to stick out from the rest of the truck, but when i black out the rest itshould look good. it sure scares the cars when i pull in behind them

Looks Good i got a Fab fours a while ago and like it alot. People make sure they move over when they see that bugger comin at them in the rear view mirror. There is a picture of mine on this page.

Mine was 2300 with powder, lights were extra ofcourse..Since i posted ive been staring at mine and its looking better every time i look at it. I love how the people just scurry out of my way when im barreling down on them.

I like it, nice and clean, none of those flimsy cheap looking bars to "protect" the headlights.

Does that bumper have a gaurd to protect the headlights/grill area. Seems if you hit a deer it'll still smash those areas bad. Overall, the bumper is nice, but I do not like the blacked out look.

Thanks guys appreciate the comments.

"snoyes" I just think the chrome look has been beaten to death on these trucks, not saying it's bad just my opinion. Every one in my home town has chromed up there trucks so im going the other route..

Looks good to me, and I agree with you on the excessive use of chrome.

I also like the special "smart car killer" option!

Looks good, will look better with the chrome deleted.

My '01 has the Sport package which has a color matched grill and chrome delete. I like it much better than all the bling on my '03.

Im glad that there are other's out there who are with me on the chrome "bling" deal. I just wanted to do something different with my inferno red, thought the black would look good with it. Hey what do u guys think of a full black grille or red around the outside and black on the rest of the grill.?? wanted a rbp grill but they wanted $1400 for the black one, i have another grill at home i might just paint it myself with matching black paint..we will see, i have been waiting for my black mickey thompson's for over a month now. any suggestion's on something else??
