That bumper is so clean, looks awesome!

I'm pretty happy with it. I haven't measured to see if it's the bumper fabrication or the frame itself but the bumper is a little off center. On the right side the edge runs right up to the fender flare, on the left side there's a good 1/2 inch gap to the fender flare. I assume it's the bumper fabrication but I don't want to talk bad about it until I verify. It's a good thing I'm not OCD.

Also I don't remember seeing in any of the many pictures I looked at before buying the socal bumper, a badge. There's an aluminum badge riveted to the bumper on the right side. Not a huge deal but I like to get paid for advertising. Not sure yet if I want to leave it, yank it and fill the holes (somehow), or yank it and screw the holes (figuratively).

Oh also, I'm pretty peeved at whoever painted the body. If you're looking at the front at a little bit of a lower angle you can see the bottom blue portion of the body that the OE bumper used to cover. Well there was a factory sticker all ratty and half fallen off so I yanked it off and it had been painted over. There's a big ugly square of primer there now instead of a blue ratty sticker. Jokers.

I hate to break it to you, but it kinda sounds like you may have CDO. That's OCD in alphabetical order, as it appears you like things a certain way. lol

Seriously though, nice looking bumper. Hope you get it just the way you want it soon......

Haha, ya I guess I failed making my case for not being OCD. no but really, it doesn't need to be great as long as it's perfect...

CDO = Chief Detailing Officer

OCD = Observation of Critical Details (like a stinkin' sticker under the paint!!!)

You say "certain way", we say "the right way"!

Why are you parked so far away from the curb??? No wonder everyone thinks Raptor drivers are a bunch of **********......
