What tires are you running on your d2?

Yes, just the front one. The metal on mine is o.k., I was able to pull it back out but have found since there is no feasible way to get the plastic to recover it as they are almost always sold in one piece. So, I figure a metal bumper is the way to go but can't afford to pay $1000 for it. They can fabricate it in the welding shop at the school I work at if I can get some plans to them. My back bumper is fine if that is what you were asking.

Would you be willing to share plans for your bumper? I work at a school and may give it to their welding teacher to make one for my 2000 DII. My plastic on my bumper is broken and don't really want to pay $850 for a used plastic bumper plus shipping or ARB's $1100 even though I like theirs as well. Mine would not be for off road and I love the look of that.

Yeah no not really important just for sound. If you like that spend $150 on a magna flow muffler and you will really like the tone it puts out!
