Wow Erik...that's awesome!

If you need any help installing it, I'm not too far. I'd also love to put it in front of my Pathy to see how well it fits the lines and size of my truck. I know the mounts are different...but there are a lot of parts for Xterras that one could adapt to fit a Pathy...

Thanks Scott. If you caught me gazing at your bumper, It's because it was filling the void of mine being overdue...lol

Jeff, It came on a small semi I guess. I was told by Jim at Shrockworks that I could have it shipped to a distribution center, and pick it up from there (which is what I would have prefered since I knew I wouldn't be here when it came) but he talked me into having it set up where I would get a call from the freight company with a window of time that it would be delivered.

Well, they never called, just showed up....and my sis couldn't unload it (they only ship to the tailgate), so since the guy was cool enough to lug it to the backyard, I had her give him a nice tip for me.

Thanks for posting the link to that thread, I forgot all about it. Definitely some good information there. I'll certainly be adding at least one of the two extras at some point.

A few reasonably crappy pictures...taken on a reasonably crappy day...
It was raining too, so the wiring is "done" in a temporary sense. I still need to put the clevis shackles on the bumper.

Erik, that looks fantastic! :D Nice job. Did you wire the lights to your stock fog light relay?

I looked at your plate and though you had my plates for a second, my old plates were ARN-6880. :lol:
