Huh.. Not bad man! Clever goin into the stock bumper, kinda exoskeletonesque.. Haha.. Don't be too bummed by the comments.. I was a bit surprised by the cynicism when I was new to CF. seemed odd, but it reflects more on them that they can't be constructive in their criticisms!! Haha.
Any other homebrews?

"Every time I have seen a forum where the enforced atmosphere is "evrywun be nice and say nice things about each other " I have seen it get taken over by simpletons, idiots, dumba**es, ignorant gravynecked hicks and total retards all saying nice things about each other's terrible ideas and fab work. That is why I stay off *************."
I just asked him a question that he won't answer. Probably because he's moved on to another forum that doesn't have critisizm. A pointless forum. If you want to post up pictures for other people to look at and not comment on then he should start a Cardomain page and disable the comments.

A for effort
F cause it sucks.
Your idea is in the right place, however you just started cutting with the first draft. Ideas like these need to be feed and nurtured to a great design.
Hey at least JY bumpers and only $25.00

obviously just for looks which is just fine. I would definitely throw some paint on there at the very least. I would also tell ya to keep thinking and plan something a bit more structural/useful because while yes it was a cheap build its also only held on by screws/self tappers if i noticed correctly. They will loosen over time and your neat-o bar will either slop around or fall off.

for all the haters of conduit... i did a cheap-o mockery of a prerunner bar for my friends beater x-90 we were beating on for some time and it would actually take down some good 1-2" trees and still hold up.
if you have a welder and some time. i did a little light bar for the front of one of my old jeep and made it out of an old front sway bar from an xj... held up pretty well and actually the bumper brackets end up bending before the bar i made did when i was running smaller trees down on the trails.
