Help! Can anyone give me a rough estimate of how long it should take to remove the plastic Rubi front bumper and install: Mopar steel bumper, Warn VR EVO 10S winch & mounting plate along with the Maximus-3 filler plates. I'd appreciate it.
3 to 4 hours depending on how nice a job they do on the winch wiring.

A few detail additions
- Decals for hood, name, side vent and blacked out the JEEPon sides
- Finished off with best accessory yet - Now those backseat drivers will think twice before they say anything...

Make sure you order 4 extra mopar rivnuts. The steel bumper mounts to different points than the plastic bumper.

I'm researching doing this mod to my Jeep.

Rivnuts are utilized for steel skid plate brackets. Bumper mounts same location as plastic.

Wasn't crazy about the sound from the muffler delete so I took it off, painted the oem muffler black and reinstalled it....

Might look into a Flowmaster or something of the sorts later on.... oh well!

Pretty much did the same thing myself. I built a cheap pipe to go in place of my muffler, basically welded a small pipe to eliminate the muffler but after a few days, wasn’t liking the Honda sound coming from my jeep so I decided to reinstall my one muffler again. I painted mine red and so far is holding up. I’ll keep an eye out for other options but until I bang this one up, I’ll keep it for now.
