I know it's off topic, but could you take some close up pics of the front so I can see what gap there is with the body lift? I know the back bumper can be raised with a bracket.

It is personal preference, but I am not a fan of huge empty wheel well space. For 35's, a 2.5" suspension lift and a body lift will look good. Or a 2.5" suspension lift, no body lift, and chopped flares would look good. 2.5" + BL + chopped flares needs 37's filling the empty space.

Yeah I cut them myself, I was nervous too, I took my time and cut alittle at a time. I watched a few videos and read a lot before getting to it, i kinda took the best of what I saw. I used part of the cut off part to fill the gap left after cutting the staock fender flares Also I added rubber flaps that cover the body gap from the BL.

To keep it or remove is entirely a personal choice. Install your lift and if you like how it sits and performs keep it. If you want it to sit lower remove it. I suspect you would opt to keep it myself. Post up pictures with whatever you decide.
