6.4 bumper on a 96 obs?
Just seeing if anyone here has done this with their obs. I'm not an old fart so I hate chrome. I am a welder, but would actually rather put a 6.4 bumper on and paint it rather than weld up a new one. What's needed? Custom brackets? Kit?

Im not an old fart and I like chrome bumpers
As for your original question everything is possible, just keep in mind your going to fabricate custom brakets and have to cut that bumper to fit, make sure you cut from the center of the bumper and not from the edges, weld, grind, paint and admire your work.

Personal preference. I don't particularly like how far out the original bumper sticks. I've seen pictures of the 6.4 on an obs and I just like the look better is all. But I suppose sand blasting and painting the one I already have isn't a bad idea either.

Maybe I'll bend that way. Sounds like a nice side project. No hammering involved I suppose. I'm just pulling off the plastic trim right now what a PITA.
