Thanks guys Very Happy

Was regretting to see how the extra weight would affect mpg. To my dismay, it got the best mpg average ever at 17.2 Exclamation Shocked through the mountains even. Typically falls in the 14's & 15's...highest I ever saw was around 16.1. hmmmm...? I'm not so good at giving advice...may I offer you a sarcastic comment instead?

Laughing Bonus!!

One thing I think I would have liked is if the outer side edges were rounded a bit more to the look of the stock bumper. I'm not so good at giving advice...may I offer you a sarcastic comment instead?

Yes, but with all the different angles, curves would make it harder to manufacture. Looks good though.

looking really good, but, how does it sit with regards your strict pedestrian impact regulations (as if it matters what the bumper is made of when 3 tons of lr3 runs over you Shocked ) Gone.......but not forgotten

I'm not aware of any pedestrian impact regulations enforced around here yet, have only come across bumper height related restrictions. I'm not so good at giving advice...may I offer you a sarcastic comment instead?
