Thanks for all the comments !!
It wasn`t easy justifying the cost , but now that its on I am thinking to myself "what took you SO long ?! " .. Man, that is one STOUT bumper !!
I still cant get over how easy it went on, and how well it fits !
Yesterday when I got back into town, A guy with a stock 100 was speeding trying to catch up to look at the bumper(s)...I think he pulled a neck muscle looking back and forth at the ARB and the Slee ! Gotta love it !!
It looks like I`ll be installing the (spare) carrier tomorrow, but I am gonna take a few more pics w/o it on for anyone who`s interested.
I actually like how it looks (as is) though !

Well...Its finally done !!
I finished the installation of my Slee rear bumper today, and here is what I found...
The swing-arm assy was fairly easy to put the final touches on (install the bearings and seal, measure my tire/rim for the carrier, assemble the latch,wire up the License plate lamp..etc..)
Only two things were a bit challanging for me (not bad cosidering I am an idiot when it comes to mechanical repair !!)
#1 was the damn top bearing cap that finishes off the swing-arm pivot...
I SWEAR that the black cap was bigger than the opening it was supposed to tap into !! I screwed with that cap for a half an hour, finally I had to pinch it in a vise and roll the outer lip inward to get it to fit, and even then, I put a small dent in it (I will be calling ya` for another one Christo )...
#2 was that there was no mention in the instructions (unless I didnt see them) of the size drill bit needed to install the wire clamps for the License lamp wire...I drilled a slightly larger hole than I shoud have, so I had to use larger screws.
Oh. and maybe there should be a little better description of where to tap into the harness for the lamp..(It was no big deal for me, I just used the old trailer harness wiring on the vehicle side that I disconnected when I ditched my hitch)
I painted the latch and hook, and checked everything over...It looks GREAT !!
Here`s a couple of pics of the finished product !!

Did the Slee bumper not accomodate the mud flaps?
