no.
Not finished being built yet. Last ststus update was they will be shipped on feburary 12th. Should have them by the 16th. I know, its killing me too! LMAO....
I am, however, heading up to NY this weekend to pick up a light bar and some KC lights for it. Thanks to the generosity of a customer.
so I will probably have pictures of that all done and ready before I get the bumpers in....
No worries mate, I am sure there will be a ton of pictures when I do get them! LMAO

That would be my plan as well, I have found it to be a bit faster as well.... but we will see what the group decides.... Either way, as long as we make it to the truck stop on Mollystown road to meet everyone else by 8:00... then I am happy..... lol

Well, here is some updates.
One of my customers here at work was so thrilled with the service I provided, that in exchange, he offered me his old light bar, and 4 KC Daylighters for FREE! Its a stealth light bar, with four 6X9 KC lites. Granted, I have to still find the relays and switches to hook them up, but what was I going to say? NO? yeah right!
Anyways, here are some pics of the lights, they were in his garage un touched for years, so they were dirty! I but they cleaned up super nice!


Like I said, they were dirty.... LMAO....
Just got them home last night night, and after the superbowl, I spent some time cleaning them up....




Now, I was going to get them on the Jeep today to take some pictues, however it turns out I do not have the right tool. Its a tamper proof ALLEN head screw, I had the tourge heads screw drivers.... LMAO.... So it may be a few days yet as I track down the right tool....
But what do ya think? Pretty huh?!

Bumpers are on their way. In an effort to battle the bad press, Jamie herself, from Logan's Metal Products, is personally driving them out here to deliver them! It sux that I have to go to training out of the state tomorrow!
BUT, I will get them painted this weekend, and on the Jeep by Tuesday! I also ordered a winch, that will be here tuesday as well! Keep an eye for pics, I am going to FLOOD this thread with them..... LMAO
