92 bumper front bumper

So i smashed my trucks drivers side fender. Instead of buying all the new oem stuff i decided to build a bumper with the help of my friend, who has a great shop.


we got the main bar lined up.

the main support

i got it all tacked together


the next morning after it was all welded. the final touches still needed to be made; caping the ends light mounts. tabs for skid plate.

couple coats of paint and its about done i still need to fab up a skid plate but i havent got the aluminum yet. new grille, side lamp, and fender, i need a hood but waitin till i find a white one at the local scrap yards


Thanks to Legacy Fabrication.. could not have done it without him.

That look really good that like how i want mine to be. Havent decided if i want a winch mount or not. Did u modify the side light to be the blinkers as well or what are your plans for that.
