looks good but you should tie it into the fender opening or something. also it looks kinda funny with sheet metal below the bumper on the sides. but thats just me.

Picture number 6 is the whole bumper. It is just sitting on top of my other bumper in the other pics to get a basic idea of what it would look like on.

I should have explained that better. It would sit down where the other one is and the wrap portion would be just below the crease. Check out new pic #7

I like the idea, but I would make it angled the whole way up, instead of angle-square on the side. It sould just jibe with the fender opening better that way. I also don't know if it's necessary to go that far back with the extensions.

You should def. make it so that it angles under the sheet metal some. Also make it high so that it offfers some corner protection as well

Shrock, very nice work (fabricator myself) but it's bulky. :flipoff2:

Shrock you need to see some real trails now. Maybe do some of the AZ, trails.

This bumper works great, Doesn't look bad, and gives you a place to mount part of your Exo-Roll cage.

Mike, believe me I know. :D

Mason is sweet though. Big Rich is looking at it for a CalRocks event even.

I'm thinking about coming out your way next summer.

Hey Rude,

Looks very sweet. Doesn't your tailgate hit the hinge though? Maybe you have it welded on....

NC, you were warned. :flipoff2: :D

:flipoff2: Yea, Yea, Yea, Tell me about it! :D I sent an e-mail yesterday asking if anything shipped yet, waiting on a response. Good thing I`m here, kind of makes it a moot point that I haven`t gotten it yet. :rolleyes:

Looks sweet man!!! How much you want for one? I need one to match the ARB I have up front and yours looks like it will match well. What you think? Going Exo myself, so I need the attachments as well.

Can you add two D ring tow points or is there not enough room?

looks great!! let us know if you wanna sell some!!:D
