Default Playing in the woods part II

Before picture, taken roughly a week ago..



Now on to the new look


















The lip isn't perfect, but I didn't want to drop a small fortune on a lip that will probably not last more than 2 years with road conditions where I live..

Not really sure, it wasn't wavy before it got painted.. But I'm not really worried about it..

Wasn't meant to be too harsh

Probably the way it was mounted? Is there 3m tape along the entire side of the lip where it hits the bumper? If not it would make it sag in places

Maybe it just needs to be straightened out with a heat gun?

It's drilled into the front of the bumper, but all of the mounting tabs aren't drilled through..
