Geek. You know I'm
Not far away I could pop my front bumper off in like an hour, (assuming my fender bender two years ago didn't jack the alignment) drive over and you could take all the measurements you want to. If this is something enough of us are serious about maybe we could entertain a group buy? Basically the ones that have been named already are at the top of my list. Especially HLC. But the equipe stuff, while beautiful is SO overpriced. Look at their lift kits. Crazy

Ok, that sounds like a good start -

Turf, I may definitely take you up on that. First and foremost, though, we need an initial design so everyone can throw rocks at it to mold it into what we want. I gotta feed the kids at the moment but I'll hop on the home CAD later tonight and throw some images up to get things rolling.

Any options other than spending $2k+ on Rovertym.

I don't weld - nor know anyone who does, so unfortunately I can't make my own..

I have a front HiCountry and steering skid. Could be talking into selling it.
Shoot me a PM if interested.

Ooooh. I had forgot about the Rock Star Fab bumpers... Anyone have any experience with these/ or heard feedback on them. Definitely like the looks. Kinda like a poor mans Equipe.

Just emailed them for more info.

thanks!

I have one on my truck. I gotta say ive never bent or twisted it and the finish has held up very good too. I dont care mutch for the Equipe bumpers myself they dont wrap around the side of the fender and dont offer mutch for protection for thenturn signal area.

I dont think yours will need sanded mutch, just a couple rough spots i noticed here an there. It would probably take me most of a day with different compounds. Maybe once I get my garage setup at the Mrs's house I wanna start doing more of that stuff there
