why do you have stock fender flares on drivers side and really nice ones on the passenger side?

Most likely a newer pictures, notice the wheels are also different and there's rain on the ground.

Started mine a while back. Got in a rush and I think I may have ruined it. Heat warped it into a frown. Not sure if.I can straighten it or if a swing out will function. Damn.

There's mine, simple, basic, "hidden winch" bumper. I wanted a better approach angle then what I had with my old one, and this one definitely got me to my goal.

Here is mine. I got the bumper from a buddy that's was cleaning his gargage out. I cut the ends at an angle then added the stinger and some light tabs couple months later when I used a welder for my engine swap.
