Run some braces to the bottom part out to the sides. I think that would make it look a lot better.

I was thinking the exact same thing.

Also maybe get some D-Ring tabs.

Did you make brackets or did you use the stock one off the original bumper?

I'm actually gonna cut the factory sides off so they are level with the top cross bar. I will be adding d-ring tabs. I used 3/16 plate inside the unibody. I used 4 bolts on each side. This cost me about $150 in materials. It's made out of d.o.m.
