Got my Maggiolina tent mounted to the roof rack. As much as I tried to avoid it, this is a much better solution than the Thule bars.

Tight Lines!In between fishing spots, I saw the rest of the river was pretty chocolate milky after a good rain in the mountains above the day before, so I drove up a new little trail I've been meaning to scope out for a while. Probably a light class 3 in parts. The rest of it pretty tame. I put it in 4lo anyway to get it some exercise. No scrapes, scuffs or slips. Pics are from about 4 miles in on the tamest portion I could get out on.

Looks really good, and thanks for the tip that the chrome bits come apart. I like how the grill isn't *all* black. I've been thinking about using (IIRC) Duplicolor Smoke Chrome to tone it down for my silver LC. I'm not sure I want it to be black-black (too much contrast vs. the silver?) but the black chrome could look pretty sweet. Dunno.Thanks man!
SEM brand bumper paint. All the little chrome pieces pop out or come unscrewed and I just sanded, cleaned and put about 4 coats of paint then reassembled it. The emblems on the back ate plasti-dip, which I'd never used before but was impressed with. If it doesn't last long I'll remove them and use the same SEM paint and will probably do the chrome side moldings eventually as well.

Mind attaching some detailed pictures of how you mounted the alucab awning to your tent?Got my Maggiolina tent mounted to the roof rack. As much as I tried to avoid it, this is a much better solution than the Thule bars.

Great looking classy rig. Nice combo of upgrades.
I did this a few months back. Getting some of those nutzerts in was a pain in the arse. Hell, I almost broke the welder out...Put these on finally.
Slee’s, great design and I love all the mounting points.
