I've got most of my Denali front clip ready to go--I only need the impact bar and a billet insert and I'll be good to go! I'm going to get the fascia painted after Christmas.

I plan on shimming the bumper up as much as possible...I have about 1.5" to 2" of gap between the current bumper and grille. I'm going to hang on to all the Sierra stuff just in case it doesn't work out.

I am sure that any body shop can platic weld it back up and use some body filler and sand and repaint it for you... it's the bumper supports beneath the cover that you have to worry about.... also... take a look at the white bagged sierra above.... he raised his cover up about 1" to eliminate the gap between the fenders and grille with some washers or something.... just something to think about.

Are you sure that it's going to not drag on you... I mean it's going to be damn close for you. I have faith for you and possibly having to get the cover repainted real quick if you aren't careful... I drag my stock valence sometimes on a 3" drop

No, I'm not sure. That's why I'm going to hang on to the Sierra stuff just in case. I think I can raise it up enough so that I don't loose TOO much clearance. It's gonna be close though.

FWIW, my stock airdam is pretty scraped up, but you can't really tell unless you lay down on the ground and look closely. Cross you fingers for me!
