Door Molding. (stuff that people put to keep from getting dents. I decided to put this on my fenders after I re-trimmed them. 2 packages from Oreilly's will be enough for both front fenders.

Its not finished yet. Waiting on winch to come in to build the hitch carrier. It will look like a full bumper when completed.I will also be able to move to back hitch when needed. This is the first time I have built something from scratch with metal. It may look big but it only sticks out 6.5 inches from front of grille and the lowest point is flush with unibody. There are some more pictures on my profile of how it has gotten to where it is for now. total investment $0 lol

No, I don't lick fish.
haha... I just realized that I have the "upgrade" to that NEBO light he has in the console - mine has three modes, green led, white led, and red laser pointer... not quite sure why someone would need it, but it sure is fun watching dogs and cats go nuts over it.

I made secondary use of my high jack lift laying behind my driver's seat. I bought a front fork bike mount from Dick's Sporting Goods for $25. Ran bolts through two of the many holes provided on the high jack lift, securing the fork mount, and allowing the lift to act as a giant foot/stabilizer once the bike was attached. Now I can transport my bike inside my vehicle, keeping it free from rain and other inclement weather when not in use. Keeps it perfectly upright and doesn't bounce around at all. I'm very pleased with the simplicity and efficiency of it.
