How many people have made their own bumpers?
« on: November 04, 2006, 20:40:53 »
I know a few on here have made their own heavy duty / winch bumpers.  Anyone point me in the direction of pics for inspiration?  A mate is looking to do one for his range rover classic and I am thinking that doing 2 isnt that much more work than doing one.... :D

Cheers,

Mike

I did

bought a kit from southdown and welded it the way i wanted it - put the winch tray as hi and as far back as i could get away with.

its a tapered one - see my later galleries for it.

dead cheap :wink:
