Very nice. What's with the Euro license plate? You're in Alabama, right?

Thanks! Well yes I do live in Alabama but Im german. I moved here 4.5 years ago. This is what the plate reads:

GM stands for the County I used to live in over there, called Gummersbach
DH stands for my name, Daniel H.
86 is my birthday

Not too bad. The holes on the sub assembly didnt line up with the frame so I had to improvise. Other than that pretty smooth install. Took about 6 hours.

Are all the Euro plates that way or is it a personalized one or something.

No thats not personalized, except for the DH 86 part. If I would have a car in germany then thats how it would look like.

Except the TÜV and Nordrhein-Westfalen stickers are mysteriously missing.

Yeah I know, but we're in Alabama so woobdeedoo :lol:

Good enough though, as a german you will recognize a german plate right away.

I love the look of that bumper. Is it any lighter than the ARB?

I am also looking at the same wheel and tire setup and wondered if you get any rubbing with them. Thanks.

I dont know how it compares to the ARB regarding weight, but its pretty heavy. The shipping ticket said 150 pounds.
And yes I did have rubbing at full lock. I hammered down the pinchweld and Dremeled some of the plastic. Now I dont have any rubbing at all.

If you plan on getting the same setup though make sure you get the OME HD coils and struts. Thats probably the best investment I ever made.

I have OME HD coils, shocks, struts, and bumpstops on the way as we speak. Thanks Endurance for your help.
