Project is certainly coming along now.. I presume you will be putting in some more brackets to stiffen up the bumper mounting? Is it not all very flimsey in the front at the moment?? My front bumper is mounted on a stock front end and thats pretty floppy! I will be putting some additional brackets in to stiffen it up.. The undertray will probably help as well.
