Whore
 
I will pack them in my bag when I come down to sd in october and I'll have my girlfriend bring them to az for you. Also, you would have no problem whoring out your truck
Awesome, I'd appreciate that! Or you can box them up and I'll PayPal you some money to ship them or something.

Did you just get in contact with them and plead your case or what? Because I need me some CBI bumpers. Hell, I need some CBI everything. And I'm on my 3rd set of Falkens in 2 years so I feel like they should pretty much sponsor me out of pity.

Well sort of. I rendered up my truck and sent it to them. Told them about social media and the forum, basically said I’ll put your logo on my truck, tag you in everything and post what I get. Some go for it. Some don’t even respond.

Right on! So the ones who've agreed just give you a discount to buy direct or something? Honestly I've never even thought about doing it but it might be about time.

Correct so once I email them they transfer me to a person that handles all the sponsorship deals and we go from there. Mike from cbi is super nice and super helpful. I spoke with him and Nathan the owner about teaming up. Possibly having my truck with them at the overland expo

That's awesome! I've talked to Nathan before at Overland Expo and I'm glad I held off at the time because it would've been a bitch to swap the bumpers over when I traded it, but I plan to keep this truck for a long ass time so I need to pull the trigger on more armor soon.

That was my thinking. Spend it now enjoy it for a long ass time later. Plus I have a turbo 72 nova build going on so the faster I finish this the faster I can blow my money on there
 
Current status of the taco
Cbi armor has been installed
The tepui is now over the bed rather than on top

If anyone has questions about the install please ask. Cbi includes no instructions and if you ask them for the instructions they are so minimal cutting took forever
Overall I really like the bumpers and the rack
I will be changing the suspension soon to hold up over time to the weight
Meso jdm interior light is insane
And all the new Baja design lights are great.
