Thanks, I didn't really want the km2's originally but everything was backordered. But I am glad I got them I really like them.Mojo's96 wrote:awesome work on the front-end and it looks really good outside with those meaty KM2's.....

Re: Otter's 89 Black and Tan
Being an owner of a black and tan I am pretty jealous to be out done. You sir have done an incredible job.
Cant wait to see the front bumper. I need ideas

I really like them too & if I have to buy brand new next time, KM2's will be my pick. FYI, it took my brother-in-law 6 months to get one 35" BFG KO to replace the spare on his GFB, and he owns a tire shop!!!

Thanks man, I will be doing bumpers this weekend. I'm off work until the 10th, so I should have a bunch of updates coming.

Not the one from DR. But pick n pull was having a half off sale last weekend, so I picked up this beauty for $100.

Re: Otter's 89 Black and Tan
Got some time yesterday to start on my front bumper. Here are some crappy pictures. I can't take a good picture to save my life. Should have it finished up today.

Re: Otter's 89 Black and Tan
About 90% done with my front bumper. I am pretty stoke on how it came out.

Re: Otter's 89 Black and Tan
Man! What an awesome Bronco you're building. I almost wish I would have kept my stock '89 front end after seeing how clean yours looks. Those clear corner lights really make a big difference. Really digging the Black and Tan paint and that bumper came out really nice.
Looking forward to seeing more of this awesome build. Keep up the great work.

Re: Otter's 89 Black and Tan
I think it would look great either way. Drop center hood would give you more visibility though. The paint seems to be in great shape and if you did one of Tony's teflon detail treatments on it, I bet it would look incredibly awesome.tcm glx wrote:That looks great Otter!!!

Thanks, I like to keep things OG. I have only seen a few in this body style, so I figured it would be the one to get.Agui-E7TE wrote:Man! What an awesome Bronco you're building.

Deffinently in the future. I love the way the Drop center hoods look. It needs some love on the front passenger side anyway. I think it took a nice little hit on the corner. The fender and hood are a little jacked up. But paint is in great shape just need to get rid of all the water spots on it.Agui-E7TE wrote:I think it would look great either way.
