Default Body lift and full width front bumper??? Any pics will help

Heres my game plan this summer to put 37" wild peaks on my JKRU with a 2.5 TF BB

-Trim fenders
-add RC 1.25" BL with rear bumper brackets
-trim pinch seam and rails

My question:
With a full width bumper is there going to be a weird gap between my fenders and bumper? I assume there is but what will it look like, any pics?
Even though I am trimming the fenders I was still going to leave the face of the flare (if you are looking at the front end straight on) full so I would still line up with my bumper. Any pics or advice would be appreciated

-Dave

BTW this is my DD and i do wheel. Have the RS-E full bumper seen in my avatar

Here's a photo of mine with flatties and a full-width bumper. Some people fear the gap...I like it.

No body lift. Just a good ole 3" Full Traction setup.
