thanks for the kind words guys.

yeah im putting the bumpers back on. on my old ute i had, i welded them up, also shaved the handles and hinges and was going to swing the tail gate for something different (but after a month of trying differnt hinge combo's i gave up on that). but on this build i wanted to keep it simple and tidy..
