Wow, not sure how I missed this thread but you did a GREAT JOB on that bumper, ftruck! Now you just need to mount a trailer power connector. I would do a flush or recessed mounting just like you did for the lights because it WILL get smashed if you don't. Especially if you intend to use that bumper for pushing things around.

Something like this:

I had this and it was great. Tossed the bracket it came with and just flush mounted it into my factory bumper.

Very nice custom bumper FtruckBrasil!
The step/light combo is genius IMO. The attention to detail is what really makes it great, the grinding on the welds looks baby smooth.

Why didn't you stick with the turn indicators like you had in the first drawings?

At first I couldn't figure out why you would put the reverse lights so far inside the bumper. Until I realized it was step!. Great idea!
