is the angle off on this front stinger bumper

i am thinking about buying this front bumper but i have many questions. the guy says he wont go lower than $250 dollars is that a decent deal, and i cant tell is the angle of the stinger wrong and whats an easy way to fix it if you think it is. i have a 1984 toyota and i was wondering if it would mount up what is that thing in the center of the mounting location thanks Nick http://i226.photobucket.com/albums/d...6/DSCN0283.jpg

I don't think I'd buy it for 250 either. For not much more you can get a way better one from a few different places.

The winch mount section of that bumper is a Trail Gear piece. They sell it for $129.00. YES, the stinger not only sticks out way too far but isn't braced either. Probably not worth what they are asking.
