Thanks!

Stereo is a JVC double din from crutchfield. World of difference over stock:

The old bumper ends are from quadratec, the high clearance ones.

Also forgot to mention I also installed a set of spider trax 1.5" wheel spacers that I picked up for $80!

Whats your thoughts on the hurricane flares? You like them, are they sturdy, how much more clearance did you get over stock?

The flares are very sturdy.
I didn't measure how much more clearance, but I'm running 33" MTZ's with 1" teraflex spacers, and now I think I might upgrade to 35's.
