Well, we got the Hanson rear bumper mounted today. You guys don't need a soup to nuts description of the issues so I will just say: that sucked. I would not recommend a Hanson bumper and DIY install but that's probably no surprise to most of you. Its on, the tire carrier is on and it looks and functions well. I bet Oliver could have knocked it out in a few hours AND saved my son some cash. Lesson learned for the front bumper and a few other future projects. Pics tomorrow once I have some sunlight and energy. I'm feeling older than my years at the moment...

I'm just ****in' with you man. Don't you have a shop class where you could make somethin' a little nicer? That's all i'm really try to say. Hell, if you need a hand i could help too. When i had shop in highschool i had friends doin' lifts and axles and all kinds of fun stuff.

Hey Shirley, I believe that I promised pics tomorrow when the sun comes up. Go back to hating on dude's console modification and be patient. I'm an old man and by the time I finished mounting that PITA bumper I needed a cigar and some fine bourbon. After that, I couldn't remember where my camera was.
