Default HLC Fab still in business?

Hey guys so I think im finally in the market for a steel bumper and my ideal choice would be for HLC fab to make me one of these but I see they don't have a website anymore. I messaged their facebook page and no one responded.

Anyone in touch with these guys?
Really loving this design.

I kept that exact picture saved for a long time and then when I was finally in the market for it they were gone. So I know the feelin.

Closest bumper I could find to it was the wideface from rte with the added fogs. If you're in a rush for one though I can't reccomend them for that. Ordered mine back in November and was told 4weeks and after checking my tracking number it should finally arrive this coming week.

It's all good. I may go with platinum motors. They have a nice bumper for the price. It doesn't have cut outs for turn signals or fog lights but I don't think a local shop would mind cutting some out for me if I really wanted them.

I asked a custom fab shop to make one for me based on the HLC design for about CAN$1,500 including the paint job.

Now that's interesting. How much of the cost was just paint? I'd be going for straight black.

If anyone has the autocad, or make an autocad, there is a Shop in Mint Hill where I live that makes Greg Davis Bumpers and I can see how much the cost would be to replicate them, I also have a front bumper, sliders and rear bumper from Denny. I should look into them replicating them and selling them! If there was enough interest, I have no problem spending the time and a little money getting them in AutoCad!
