This KK has been in the fab shop recently, with the parts shown being installed and the rest being fabbed up. The way it looks things should be ready to roll soon

Pretty cool. I was very curious to see how it was going to look with the interesting design of the KK front fender flares.

Bet those bolt on wings were fun/nightmarish to design and get everything to line up.
Imo putting the turn signals in the turn signal filler plates would make it look better.
Lookin good though.

^^ Have to agree with helm here but I like the design! looks tough!

Edit: I'm also a fan of how the end caps of the bumpers are made gives it a nice profile

It's hard to tell from the pics, but is that a huge gap around where the turn signals used to be? Doesn't look like it quite lines up

Can't say I'm a fan of the rear bumper (edit: prototype/cardboard mockup), but the front one looks like a tank!

The bottom of the back bumper is the only problem. Just makes it look huge

I agree, I think it would look better if it didn't hang so low. But I'm glad that it will have a rear tire carrier. I'm going to need that when I go up to 32's. Do you think it'll have a Jerry can and hi-lift carrier as well? I would also be curious to know if it would prevent me from storing an extra 31" spare in the current spare location.

Some answers to above questions
Remember this is an ongoing design process, just a mock up so far

It will have both carriers available just like the current KJ rear,
Will probably trim up the bottom so it doesn't look so low, but they need to have a factory hitch for final design/height/ how low the bumper hangs etc
The bumper doesn't effect the current spare area, so plenty of room for another tire, or maybe a storage container made for that area.

It'll probably look better on a kk with some lift and bigger tires too

Couldn't have said it better myself! My skinks and front bumper are awesome and now I'm saving for the komodo! I'm sure all the final products for the kk will be just as good!
