Front Bumper build progress

Well I got rid of the contraption that was on the truck and I am starting over. Offically this is my second major welding project and these pictures are of what I have looked into so far. What do you think? any suggestions for change.

Very nice, but where's your winch gonna go? JK, that thing looks sweet. You gonna paint it to match the truck, or just black.

Try your local Vo-Tech School. They sometimes offer welding classes for adults. 2 nights a week/10 weeks is how they do it here. They charge $100.00 here. Money well spent
