Hot off the FedEx truck, thanks Leonard! Gonna get a fairlead bracket put on then mount the winch and will probably bed liner it, or have a buddy powder coat it. I may just rattle can/bed liner it.

I trial fit it to see "if" it'd bolt up. It did, but I need more bolts/longer bolts(I knew I would, i've just been lazy ).
Tough to do for a one person job. Gotta get creative with stuff around the garage.

It'll look better with some dirt/scuffs on it.

I was amazed that it bolted up like it did. I figured i'd have to severely wobble out some holes or ratchet strap one side of it while shovin' a bolt though somewhere. All the holes lined up near perfect and the ones I couldn't tap a bolt through I just used a uni bit on for about 3 seconds and viola!
The only part I didn't expect was having to take off/cut off my stock fender braces. I'm betting most people who've cut their fenders have removed them already, but I hadn't. I few turns with a 10mm and a small tab with a cut off wheel and I was ready to go.
If/when I need a rear bumper, i'll hands down go with Leonard's stuff. Guy is a man of his word and has some awesome metal fab skills.
