Gabe, I'll link to my build thread, plus have pics on FB once i finish my brush guard. The biggest obstical for me was figuring out how to mount it. I think it'll be similar with yours, because dont you have a half ton bumper? (i.e. no holes) I think their is another memeber on here who did a roof rack, you might wanna check that out.

Btw, what color you going? gloss black?

All you need for gutter mounts is to make a clamp out of two pieces of metal. I would probably by the gutter mounts though.
