    Here is "face lift" I came up with with too much time on my hands and Photoshop.
    I think I like it (also the option with Hella Black Magics).
    So the color calles for silver, but dark silver I think. Another option would be to paint the skid plate, but i think that would be too much.

    One more thing to note is the repaint of the grill, all the way to the bottom, where originally white strip was. I think this actually makes a big difference.

    Thoughts?

    Actually that looks pretty good.
    If you like it, go for it (but I still prefer black )

    I like the skid plate. And the blacked out grill, I've skyways thought about going to a D2 grill for similar effect.

    So, what ya think?
    I am actually thinking of painting the bumper either while or dark silver to give it more punch.

    Some will probably ask why not just go straight for ARB bumper, but there are not large animals crossing the road where I live, (maybe some fat people), and I did this for 1/8 of the ARB cost.
    Looks Really cool, any chance od a few Close up pictures of the skid plate mounting front and read, Nice job

    Kevin,

    Here are pics of the skid plate. We actually made a frame from a one inch pipe , attached the frame to the chasis and then attached the plate in front. That way the plate is very long and it protects the steering rods. You can also take it off by unscrewing the 6 bolts from the front. (The treads are in the pipe frame.)

    Here it is painted! Came out a little lighter than I wanted, so may need a second go for darker gray.
