Every winter there are guys selling trucks with bent frames. Apparently hitting deer with a big heavy bumper is cool but hitting an ELK just bends the frame.

Custom Bumper picture thread!

It's a little higher and tucked in more that it's built for. The bumper is exactly how I asked him to build it but I wasn't crazy about it's position when bolted on so I redrilled the frame and moved it up ~1.5" and inward 2".
We have some pretty good sized muleys too but yah elk or moose that's brutal.
Here's my front "bumper". It's an "A Bomb" from Diy4x that's sunk back in to the grill as far as possible.
At some point (low priority), I want to build off of it to make a complete bumper. I'd really like to added a brush guard to it also (similar to pic below) but only if I can do it low profile and it look decent.

First pic is my front: DIY4x abomb bumper with custom tubes I built off it (sorry for the mud, it's usually all black 
)
Last two pics are my rear bumper. Center section is 2x6 tubing capped off right at the frame rails, then tubing on the outsides for protection (also my rear cage ties into the supports underneath).

I like those! The combination of plate/square tube and round tube is perfect!First pic is my front: DIY4x abomb bumper with custom tubes I built off it (sorry for the mud, it's usually all black

Doubt I'll do much to it because it does what I need it to do. Nothing.
Built this a few years agao 1/4 inch plate 1200 lb winch
Here is my rear. My front is pretty much like everyone else's tube style built off an A-bomb cradle.
My homemade front bumper.
it is a combination cam lock to access the winch clutch handle

Here is my burb with a 16.5 TI with feet mounted forward and tied into DIY4X leaf spring mounts
Here’s mine, home built. I wasn’t sure about it at first but it’s growing on me and my kids and friends seem to think it’s cool. Didn’t want to cut front valance or that kick ass 74 grill so built around them as tight as possible.
