Holy s**t
You seriously paid that much money for that? It's a nice looking bumper but man you coulda looked around for a good fab shop to make you one for half the price.

coulda had one custom built for less, but not bad!

Dont paint over line-X though... not necissary, BUT make sure you get the UV protection applied to the line-x when you get it done (it will fade in about a year if you dont)
