That looks better. For some reason I like the stock front on 2006 chevys.

The only issue with the Joe Gibbs bumper is that it has a low dip at the bottom to make room for the intercooler. This could be an issue with a lowered truck. Not to mention they are not easy to find either....

A friend of mine broke his loading it up on a trailer. His truck is crazy low though. I did an odd job for him so he is actually giving me his spare joe Gibbs bumper 👌😁

Nevermind. Don't really care for that one either. Stock is cool

That JG bumper looks like dogg poo. I'm with blown, the 06-07 chevy front ends were the best for the nbs IMO

Those bumpers are ugly, i'd live with the extra weight of the normal bumpers just so I didn't have to puke every time I looked at the truck

yep, thing of beauty. I've been casually keeping an eye out for any nice 05-07 nbs's for sale and unfortunately, around these parts, nearly all of them are ragged. A clear NBS is a real head turner for me.

When I found that pic above, I also found a few other from that same day. It was the first time out with the 4/6 drop on bogarts. For old times sake...
