Can you post some pics from the rear?

Yes, I agree. That looks like a nice trim.

Nice work! I’ve been thinking about doing this. Just didn’t know how it’d look with the factory hitch there and not having work done on the tail pipe.

Thanks, I will be chopping off the muffler this week, but now I have much more clearance instead of dragging on everything

That does look really good. Is the hitch on yours? I can't really tell from the pictures. I think the hitch is definitely my low spot.

I hacked the tail pipe off a while back, the silly chrome tip wouldn't come off to save my life so I just cut it off at an angle as a turn down back of the resonator.

I am very seriously tempted to get out there and cut my front and rear now to help with the look and clearance/breakover/approach/departure until I get actual bumpers on the thing.

sorry if this is a really dumb question but does that affect DEQ at all for emissions testing?

No clue lol. I don't get emissions tested where I live so it's a non-factor for myself.

Installed my RAGOFab brackets and Baja Designs S1 ditch lights today.

Still fiddling with adjustments, probably aim them up a little more but very impressed with the output of these little suckers.

Got some distance on everyone

Yea, I'd say so...
But you didn't have to take down ALL the trees in the process!

@Cemeb4dk What did you use to cut the lower grill?

 

[Cemeb4dk]

For the lights? I just used an air saw. But a Dremel with a cutting wheel would work as well just a little slower.

I've had an 80 for a while, but new to the 150 section. We just sold our E63 AMG and picked this GX 460 up for my wife, then put wheels on it immediately. We love it. GX for light trails, road trips. LX 450 for heavier stuff and as my commuter.

I'm still getting used to the sideways gate on the GX. Not a complaint. It's just different not having a tailgate to sit on. Tried to sell her on the LX 570, but she thought it was way too big. Anyway, we're really stoked to have a GX too. See you guys around!
