    They did total it. We jumped at it as it was a very easy repair and recertification process. Thank you!

    Looks great! How do you plan to do the front license plate? I am trying to figure that question out myself for when I add the winch.

    Well......honestly I havent ran one in years and should give that thought. Kinda silly I guess but I was thinking today Id like to block the winch opening from debris. I will let you know what I come up with and ask you to kindly do the same.
