I've got a week off work so decided to make myself a new bumper. Two days into it and I have the stock one off, the plates to mount it made and the bumper shaped and welded up. Just need to trim the ends of it, add a bottom to it and beef up the brackets I made to include some tow hooks etc.
So far it has cost me $56AUD, which is about $40USD I guess. I'm baseing it on the RockLizard Monitor bumper.
This is what I'm going for.
And here is my progress.
Yesterday.
Today I got this far.
Tomorrow I should get the recover hooks mounted and the basics of the bumper finished off![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
