New Bumper!!!

New Bumper!!!
I traded my other beat up stock bumper and brush guard with some cash for this bad boy...
Had to cut and drop the mount brackets on it to fit with my body lift.
But it had experienced an encounter with a pole previously, and i wanted to add a receiver hitch (or two, for a future weight rack option for pulling) so I got busy on it today and built a new front plate to fill in the gap between the push bars, cover the damaged portion, and add extra support for the receiver tubes, which are anchored by a peice of square tube welded between the bumper brackets. 6 grade (8) 1/2" bolts mount it to the truck, possibly adding 2 more at some point. I'm getting a winch for it also which will just mount on a receiver plate, so it will be removable.
Here's the finished product!!!
And I think i'm selling my stainless rear drop bumper to fund the building of a rear bumper to match the front one. They'll both probably get Rhino lined since i work there, and i'm thinking of spraying my rockers and around the body line around the fender wells too. What would ya'll think of that, yay or nay? I would do it all in black lining.
Thanks
Eric
