Custom Flatbeds

Anyone have any custom flat bed pictures they could post. I am looking for ideas to finish mine. Mostly looking for headache rack ideas, and maybe side rail ideas. This picture is the current bed.

That is the bumper as requested, its not the greatest picture, I took it today after a quick winter fishing trip. The bumper and the bed were both fabricated in the garage, I used 1/8" plate for the bumper, and a piece of 3/16th for the winch plate. The bed was made with 2" .120 square steal tubing and 2x6 .120 tubing for the side rails. The tool boxes will be added eventually, and I think I'm going to try something like the first recommended picture as the headache rack. I basically have to use scrap steel that I can salvage from work, and neighbors to build it and I think that the first one should be easier to get materials for.
