Lots of the photos on the first 2 pages are broken, any chance of fixing those? I didn't save them and am getting ready to shamelessly steal your bumper design.

It's a lot more than the first page, it's the first 6 pages. Crazy, they just went away. I posted in the announcement section that the thread is having an issue with displaying the images so hopefully it'll get fixed soon.

And as for copying it, that's all part of posting how I built it on here. People are gonna copy it if they like it.

Thanks Matt.

The 'stealing' thing was all tongue in cheek. I think you're awesome for sharing.

This is still my favorite bumper on CF.

Thanks again,
Dutch

Thanks! Total costs, after adding the bull bar, about $240ish.
