Default Cowl snorkel, Bumper and winch! All Done

Hey guys, my winch bumper came in on thursday had that on in about 1 hour, winch came on friday also installed it in about an hour, and I designed a cowl snorkel that cost me about $50 bucks and two days of creativity, I think it came out pretty good....thought I would share it with you guys here are some pics. I knoe I should have taken more but I was tired..

Well havent used this one yet but i had the exact same winch on my 96 before this one and I loved it, it would never give up on me, I pulled one of those huge f350s with those v10s not diesel out of mud pretty easily..

And for everyone else I will try to get some more pics up tomorrow.
