My new bumper is on the way. Here are some pics pre paint.
It will be a long couple of days 'till it arrives.

 

Thats one serious piece you got there. I assume that's not your truck if you are saying it hasn't arrived yet...if not what color is your rig?

 

My 97 is white and the bumper has been painted black.

 

That looks real good ! Did you have it built ?

 

What's the cost/can it be fitted on a 2nd gen? What is it made out of?

 

Looks stout!! I would have extended the hoops over the headlights, but it looks good.

 

Built by irbisoffroad.com in colarado. It is pretty much their standard 3rd gen bumper with some slight modifications.

 

i like the logo integrated!

 

Check their website for pricing irbisoffroad.com . I don't think they have a 2nd gen bumper but I would contact them they would probably be able to adapt/build one for the 2nd gen. I was thinking of extending the the hoops but I changed my mind.

 

I really like the design and looks of it, but $825 seems kinda steep.

 

Yes it is slightly more that other bumpers but I was recently in an accident, so if you subtract the difference for a new factory bumper, valence and other assorted parts (with some interesting body shop number games) the cost is actually pretty reasonable.

 

looks like a football helmet to me around the grill. i bet its tough though

 

is it winchable? their site dosnt come up for me

 

Very different from anything out there. I like it!

Reminds me of something you'd see overseas.

 

Thats a sweet bumper!

Man, that's sweet. Now I need to get hit in the front and back.

 

rocket, that worked! NICE

 

That's cheap for a custom bumper.

 

How much is a ARB? 700? Doesn't seem out of line.

Tell Oleg nice work!

That's funny, thats the guy who bought my stock limited hood from me. Very nice guy...never knew he did THAT kind of work. He just told me he sold cars. Haha!
