No, not yet. Hopefully in a few weeks. Gotta finish the wheels, mount glass, and get done with customer stuff first. Not enough hours in the day.

I did put the muffler on though. LOL. Sounds good.

The glass is in the background on the pic with the two tires stacked up. Been tripping over those things too long. :roll: Kinda dreading putting the front on. Wish the inner fender wasn't one with the outer.

Just got back from my little light test. I am very impressed with the light bar and very unimpressed with my stock headlights. LOL. The pictures don't do it justice. Looks ever better in person. I wanted to get a real feel for the bar so instead of just holding it and pointing at the dark I waited to test it till it was installed on the truck. Most of these pics are my phone sitting on top of the steering wheel to get a drivers point of view. Also keep in mind my windshield is very dirty.
Pitch dark.

I don't have a whole lot of experience with different lights but I think this setup will do me well. Especially after I upgrade the headlights. Not sure yet if I'm gonna put lights on the bumper or not. Oh ya, this is a 40" LED light bar from prerunit on here. Thanks Javier.

Not a huge update here but i did get one rear quarter done. My first glass install on a bronco. I'm a little less than pleased with the fit. The rear area around the taillight is all kinds of jacked up. When i paint it I'll have to do some cutting and reshaping. Overall it looks good but there is atleast a half inch gap above the light when i put it in. i tacked in a nut for the front top mount since you can't really get to the back side.

i dont know why they make the wrap around the rear like that. its impossible to make it look right.
i would trim that edge off and stop the glass right before the corner.....

I like the wrap around and the tapered up rear. That's one of the reasons I bought it. The glass is pretty thin and would look nice if it was only the same shape. I understand thicknesses variances but this is a total different shape. I didn't post this to bash fiberwerks as I've never had a problem with they're ranger glass. Just wanted to post my experience. I'm sure if I went to Jason he would make it right but he is just too far from me so I'll just deal with it.

i wasnt bashing, and wont compare brands. if you like it and can make it work to your specs than by all means do it,its yours. my new front clip is fiberwerx and i like it,the only fitting issues i have are my own preferance of slope to the front end, otherwise all the line are good,if i were to make fit it the way they designed it.
i like the way you did your tabs i wish the guy who installed my rear quarter did that.....
