Default Shaved the rear end....

decided that the bumper needed to go......
its a bolt in, but i did alot of body work to make sure that it fit the right way.

where to start lol....

the curve wasnt quite right on the pan, around the license plate was a little bit low....
under the pan at the endpoints needed to be bent a little bit. both sides needed to be cut at angles to fit the truck bed. each truck is a little bit different so nothing is going to line up perfectly.

Looks great, the dark color hides the gaps well. Great job!
