Nice work! Maybe you should've painted the flange like I did.

Depends on the LE agency/jurisdiction and whether or not there are violation cameras. May be too a CA Veh Code thing, but you'd be surprised. I ran no front plate on many of my vehicles for years until L.A. City wanted to run red light cameras (which were struck down by whatever court case). Now I run a front plate because I sometimes transport firearms to designated shooting areas and I don't wish to engage LE during those times in particular.




Defence, your truck is coming along nicely. Do you plan on a different wheel/tire combo? and hence the flares?

It's required, question is, are you willing to get pulled over and maybe ticketed or worse for not having one.

I mean, some states any visible tint on front windows is illegal and many more anything darker than like 35% VLT is illegal, but...you still see it everywhere

^ ^ ^ Nice. Those are on my short list. How long did you take to do your install? and are you an old hand at 12V wiring. Thanks.

I want amp steps so bad, but I settled for some factory take offs for $80. They look good though!
