Anyone able to help install a wrap around bumper?

[tex]

I was looking at bumper options and I found a good deal on a used CBI high clearance wrap around.
If I can get it worked out would anybody be able to help chop my bedsides? I know Sean said it was easy and to measure 3 times and cut once.
Let me know and if I get the bumper we can out work deatails at that time.

I would rather not cut but a rock had different plans for my truck. It is either go with a wrap around or fix the body. I am pretty sure I am going to chop it unless someone has a driver side bed pannel in black sand peral for really cheap.

That sounds very comforting. I would prefer if the person helping has some experience doing this. I really dont want it to look shody.

Jump on it Aaron, it's an 800$ bumper. CBI builds very nice stuff, my rear bumper on the 4runner is a CBI. I am sure someone will cut your truck up.. I don't have the steady hands, but am willing to help.

I am waiting on a reply about shipping. It would probably be cheaper to ship it so I pick it up at a fedex or ups hub.

be sure to shoot a video as I want to cut my beside as well for a wrap around!
remember- get comfortable BEFORE you start cutting

I am sure I will get some pics or video.

If that used CBI bumper does not pan out does anyone have good or bad opinions comparing CBI, ATO and relentless fab? They seem to be the only 3 that make a wrap around.

 

[drew02a]

I only have experience with ATO. I was very impressed with the build and finish out quality.

 

[tex]

Good to know. Any thoughts on how high up the bed the ATO sides are compared to the CBI? I like the looks of the ATO better but I like the CBI sides better.
Maybe ATO will put different sides on it.

 

[drew02a]

You just don't want to cut as high?

 

[tex]

It does not matter since I am cutting but I read some having issues with the fender flapping while driving. They offer a brace but I think the CBI sides look cleaner.

So did you get this thing or not?

If I can get that guy on TW to reply I can get it now but if ihave to get it made it will be a little longer due to cost and build time.
