You said AVE tire carrier, but it looks like the OEM 10th A rear bumper. Was it an option to add the swing out to the stock bumper?
 
The Rear bumper is the stock 10A bumper which is made my AEV. It has the hole for the AEV tire carrier which i added. It is fixed and not a swing away but all the weight is taken off the door and placed on the AEV tire carrierImageUploadedByWAYALIFE1382760015.430582.jpg
 
No the AEV tire carrier is attached to the tail gate and opens with the tailgate. It is designed to take all the weight off of the gate
 
To the questions about the 6145 fog installs here are the pics since i couldn't send them via a private reply

The JW 6145's fogs can fit the 10A bumper but they are loose. I have seen other threads where people have used things like weather stripping to make them snug but i wanted a more permanent solution. I had my mechanic machine a bracket so it would be tight and more durable for off roading and extreme winter conditions. Here are some of the pics of the brackets after the install. I did paint them black with Tremclad rust paint before we put them on.

Also the tail lights are Recon LED in Smoked as i like the darker look. The guards are the Mopar Jeep ones that i had my dealer throw in since i drop a lot of coin there. Her are the pics when i installed them comparing them to stock. Sorry daylight pics only.

Oh they are around. Just not very many of them and it's nice to see I'm not the only crazy one. Mine was torn apart with about 300 miles on it and she gets wheeled a lot.

OMG that is exactly the look I am going for. I am picking up my Granite X on Friday. A template, material help would be huge. If I cannot get the fogs to work that would be a deal breaker for me.
Thank you again for taking the time to answer.

I haven't actually seen the X yet but granite is a great color. I heard the x has a lot of the same mods so should look great.
