Default New Bumper Build

Since the weather was decent I decided it was time to get started on my new bumper today. Still got plenty to do too. Hopefully I'll have it finished before the Memeorial Day Weekend.

thats a really good looking bumper, that looks a lot like the TNT rockrunner that i have. one thing that would look good on that are like another bar that goes around that are turn signal guards, they look great on a bumper like that. another cool idea would be like weld a skid to it that that would be easy, just something to protect your cross member from the "death pinch". check out t&t's rockrunner bumper for some ideas

That is nice work, I wish we could get away with tube bumpers.
