Can you help me design new, post-collision bumper mounts?

Here's what I have to work with.




I have any type of metal to make the brackets.


I am building a bumper made out of metal. I don't know how to describe the metal but its thick as heck and it's like an I-beam but the it's shaped more like an upside down L if you know what I mean.

Examples would be awesome.

I would be able to mount those even with those big, nasty holes I have?

Yes. pretty straightforward. The front two holes are barely needed. The rest of them are going to get the job done. I've seen pics somewhere that a guy who destroyed that sheetmetal part out front and used something akin to the JCR parts with no ill effect.

Wow. Thanks for pointing those out.

Can I mount a stock bumper with those?

Yes, kind of overkill but could be done.
