Sure you can!
Buy some metal working tools, and get to work! Haha!
No, but seriously, if you even have the slightest interest in doing any fab work, the tools will pay for themselves, is a short amount if time. They are definitely a worthwhile investment.

Didn't mean to Hi-jack.
Looks like your off to a awesome start, and have some great ideas. Can't wait to see how they turn out.

i dont mind some hi jacking haha

but yeah, fronts for now, rears later in the year. I have to leave for school the 26th, but then im limited to modding things in a parking lot again.

Flat stock is bent, just need welded and painted

...and yes, have some fabbing tools and or skill is the easiest way to make friends with common interests...that being they all want bumpers
