Nice. If she had done it last year she could have gotten a m8000 for a little bit more. But I think the vr's just have a slower line speed.

decided that i am going to be converting my front bumper into a hidden winch bumper. so if all goes to plan the bumper will still have the same low profile, high clearence design...but will have the added benifit of the winch. it's tight packaging, but i think i can pull it off
