So I built a bumper today
Alright, so maybe I was a little bored, or maybe I didnt like the stock one, or maybe both, but here is what I built today. I think I will spray it the same color as the truck since I have some of the paint left......

Yea looks good, myself I would probably made it just a little deeper, same shape.
So it projected out in front of the truck more then it does, not a lot, not like some front bumpers ya see can be used as a park bench! No, just 1 maybe 2 inches more then you have it built there would do it.
What'd you use to cut the parts?
Passenger side, very end of it looks turned up at that end? That's just a illusion/effect from the angle the picture was taken at?

Hey man that thing is awesome, I just did the same for my truck. Built a front, and am almost done with the back. I have a thread on here, but for some reason I cant load pictures anymore so I could show everyone my final product.
Just out of curiosity how did you weld it? MIG, Stick?
Looks really awesome!!
Are you a welder?
