I built a bumper a couple weeks ago and thought i would share it. i didnt take very descriptive pictures but i made the frame of the bumper out of 2in sqaure pipe and covered the top with plate along with the bottom. I think it turned out quite nice. I wish i had a winch on it instead lights but i am only 17 and in highschool and dont have a hunk of money to spend. all of the metal costed $96 dollars ( a hundred dollar bumper!). sorry i didnt think of taking pictures during the actual build till after i was almost done.

 

Looks good Nice Work.

 

thank you. I know it is kinda for just 2 lights but it was the first bumper i have ever built.

 

For 17 thats one beautiful bumper, Its one of the nicest I've seen on here. You might of just changed my mind on my bumper build.

 

i want one now, got any other pics so i can see how its made?

 

I love it! Nice a clean looking.

 

Very nice!

 

yea can you send me the plans you used or something cause i want to build mine like this...very nice looking

 

one of the cleanest DIY bumpers ive seen on here nice work!

 

yup ive only been around here for a few weeks but thats the best one ive seen, ill start a thread for mine

 

what did you use for mock up to get measurements for the pieces? iv been thinking of building the same style bumper.

 

Well done!

 

very nice fab work for only 17 there is no way i would have been able to build that at 17. Looks very good you should try to get some schematics up or something..or start building and selling them cheap you could make some good money.

 

Thanks for all the nice comments. i figured many people would not have liked it and said it was overkill. i know it is a little...

Here are some pictures that are a little blurry but they show how i did it.

i will post pics of the underneath tomorow. while uploading the pictures i noticed on my mounting plates the bolt holes are actually further back.

 

thanks so much i am a 16 year old..so i fell ya with the no money part haha
