opinions on my bumper?

[broflow]

So I had a beer or 2 and stared at my bumper tonight. I decided that I had to move it up higher. I was able to move it up 2.5" so that now the top of the bumper is above the valance. It doesn't sound like much but it looks much better.
It wasn't too bad with the aid of a plasma cutter. It cuts apart faster than it goes together. Had to trim the frame horns a little and cut down the width of the winch cradle so it will fit in between the frame rails.
Now I can add the brush bar and maybe some gussets under the wings for looks?

Can’t see pics not a paying member but sounds like you’re on the right track.

Back on the bumper again. It's been a busy summer, just not busy with the K5.

That thing is hideous... hurry up and sell it to me!!!

 

[beags86]

I think it needs to be slightly bigger to match the truck. Have the ends wrap around the corners more. And maybe a angled plate on the bottom of the wings.

I like that alot

 

[K85 Octane]

I like it too but it still needs those small gusset triangle pieces on the bottom. Angled or not, just something similar to what the Blue and Ryoken were saying.

 

[ryoken]

yup, i still think it needs those lowers... angled back at 45 down to the back of the hangar... I like the tube work....

I was thinking a stinger in that similar fashion. But, has anyone ever done it with 2X4" tubing before?

Tough to bend

Oh and you better hurry up your tires are shrinking!

wing gusset added to bumper per Ryoken and Blue85. I bent them up out of some 10 gauge. It should add some strength and it looks better. Now on to rear bumper.

parts for the rear
