Default Looking for second opinions on the bumper I plan to have made.

So I've designed a new bumper after looking at all the aftermarket options available and liking exactly none of them. well, I kinda like the ARB, but its out of my price range. So, here is what I've got right now. I used my supremely suckey photoshop skills and threw this together. I've got a plan in place for the brush guard, But it would have been difficult to draw out. I'll see if I can make up a 3d model of the bumper in inventor and throw up some renders for you guys (if I can remember how to use it).

Edit: Might be a while, looks like I dont have it installed any more. Going to have to wait on it to download again.

Thought about moving the recovery points to point forward, as opposed to down? They look prone to snagging/smashing there.

Someone else actually pointed that out on Reddit. I'll probably move them up to the front, I just need to play around and see where I like them at. Thanks!

What brushguard do you have on there now? Doesn't look like a D2 one.

I said **** on aesthetics ( I winced) and went with $0 function.

Here is what I ended up with:


Total investment with the 12k Ramsey, is still $0.

Good luck, I like where the photoshop is going
