Looks very nice !! your front bumper is upside down though. The brackets go below the frame rails.

This picture was taken as soon as it got off the flat bed from the paint shop.
Yes the mirror was too low, and the bumper was upside down.
I flipped the bumper and adjusted the mirror on the right side.
I have glass mounted peep mirror for the left side.

I don't know what happened to the original mirrors as it the truck unused in a shed for over 30 years before I bought it.
