Default Custom front bumper build
I decided to build my own bumper to save money and get it the way I wanted it. Let me know what you think.

I didnt use any part of the stock bumper, its all 1/4" steel. Its painted with Rustoleum primer and Rustoleom hammered black. I'm looking into building a powdercoat oven and if so will probably PC the bumper.
