I Re-Fabricated the bumper to match the width of the fenders or slightly wider, so when I hit something I hit bumpers and not fiberglass

                         Before I fixed it                                             After I refabed the bumper

I still gotta send the bumper to Powder Coat, getting looking Sharp

I really dont know what I want to do with the rear Fenders, I dont like the fiberglass bedsides. I may do cut out fender flare. Im not sure. please leave comments on what you think.

This is where the old exhaust was, until I crushed it.

potatoes4s 2007 Chevrolet Silverado

This is the exhaust I had to modify, I tore it up and closed it off on Carnage Canyon. I had to use my cordless saw to cut off the exhaust to make it off the trail and home. Now its tucked right next to the frame where nothing should get to it, you can tell I got lazy and just bought new dumps and a stretch of pipe where it was destroyed

I FOUND A GREAT OFF ROAD TRAIL IN COLORADO, CALLED SLAUGHTERHOUSE GULCH, IT'S NEAR BAILEY, COLORADO. THEY HAVE LINKS ON THEIR WEB PAGE TO OTHER NEAR BY TRAILS. GO TO TRAILDAMAGE.COM AND SEARCH SLAUGHTERHOUSE GULCH FOR VIDEOS, PICTURES, AND DRIVING DIRECTIONS. THEY HAVE EVERYTHING FROM MUD PITS, ROCKS, HILL CLIMBS AND MORE. ITS FREAKIN SWEET. I GOT STUCK A FEW TIMES IN THERE. I AM WAITING TO GET THE VIDEO AND PICTURES FROM MY FRIENDS.
