Thumbs up

so u oppted to keep the stock crumple metal on the frame rails? its looks kinda out of place now that uve upgraded, but thats just my opionion. i like the bumper, simple and to the point, but i would have cut off the crumple metal points and welded on something stronger

Looks good. You might want to think about getting into the bumper making business. Bet you could sell a few of those.
