Default Funny Choped fender and bumper

So I am looking to chop my front bumper and fenders. I have a 2.5 TF lift and rubi take offs. I think this will look funny with the smaller tires and choped bumper but who knows. Any body with this set up have any pics. I looked thru the threads and its just taking forever to load up here at work and plus I have to keep watching my back!!!

There are some pics somewhere on the forum. I think a stubby bumper would be fine but the cut fenders wouldn't

I had 35s in place with the BB before I cut my fenders. I don't think it would look horrible but I think it'll make you want to upgrade even faster.

I know with 35s it looks nice with the chopped fenders... That is why I am seeing if anybody has my set up with chopped fenders and stock rubi's... I am really leaning to cut the bumper rght now and saving the fenders for when I get bigger tires

I have 3.5 inch lift and have 35s I think cutting the fenders came out good. And I sawzalled the front bumper to clear for flex. I'm happy with it. Tons of people think I bought the fenders.

Same here. Can't count how many times people have asked me where I bought my fenders. Nope, just a ere el and an afternoon. If you are planning to go to 35s eventually, just wait.
