Default Rear Bumper Fab
Started one day with some spare time. I've built my front bumper too. But this one was built with learning from mistakes in the front one with welding, and placing the metal. This is my second time welding ever and second time fabing something for my jeep. By the way I'm 14 years old.

now go get yourself a couple flap discs for the grinder and you can clean those welds up like no tomorrow. it will look like a bought bumper with just a bit of work.
