Been lurking for a year, figured it's time to say Hi!

Hey everyone! I've been lurking and creeping on this forum since I've had my 2019 Ram 1500. Such a great resource and most everyone seems really cordial and nice. About 2 months ago I was in a little fender bender. Thankfully everyone was ok, but I was able to replace my bumper, grill and headlights with some that I picked out. And since there was no frame damage, I was able to do it myself. I'm no mechanic, but I'm proud of myself and wanted to show it off to those that would appreciate it. Also was able to do a muffler delete myself so I can actually hear my hemi now!

I don't plan on doing any heavy off-road driving, so I picked a bumper that looked great to me.

Removing my stock bumper, with the stationary air dam and also the active air dam, I'm going to need a skid plate for sure. The active grill shutters were also damaged so I removed those, left the motor and zip tied it up. No CEL on anything.

I'll be around here more and more, I appreciate the help I've already gotten from you all!

I did in fact change the headlights:

They have a super cool dynamic led strip and fit perfectly.
