95 4runner rear bumper removal

this may be dumb question lol
but anyways well i have a tube bumper on the front and was thinking about just removing my rear bumper, well 2 reason, i realy like the look without the rear bumper and second im planning on getting a rear tube bumper aswell.

but the queston is would it be alright to drive around with no rear bumper and just wait until i get a rear tube bumper???

thanks,
Nick

nice lol, that reminds me...there is a ford truck around town with a board as his bumper lol

and yepp is KY lol, basically every cherokee around here dosent even have a bumper

also depends on what part there from lol, such as lousivlle, basically city rarely see any rig of some sort there, shelbyville (where im from) pretty much a mix of city/country, TONS of trucks, and then theres waddy, straight up redneck there xD, basically truck after truck after truck

yeah what gave me the idea to go ahead a remove it was i saw a picture of a 4runner on here and it looked pretty good.

The second gen bumpers are attached to the body anyhow, so bumper or not, if someone rear-ends you, the body is getting jacked up. I wish I could remove mine, but I live in a "bumpers required" state. Soon....soon I will have my own thats attached to the frame. Just need more welding practice
