Those are toy tow hooks. I wont paint them until they get scratched up pulling toys out.

That does not sound like fun.. You did not get the air compressor out and get the spray gun out and do it?

How do you like that bug shield? I would spend money on the Putco lower grille to protect your intercooler. I also would like to know where you got your grille lights...

Looks good, keep us up to date on how well the paint holds up to the seasons.

grill lights came with the grill. ordered it from Australia. like the bug shield installed easy, no drilling.

They also look good painted Magnetic if you have that trim color already.

I made some shackle mounts for the front and modified these to go on the back.
