I really like the look of it. My girl hit a deer on the way home last night. Messed up the grille and bumper now I have an excuse to make the one I want to. What thickness steel did you use?

It's 1/4 inch plate and weighs about 100lbs. Deers beware!

this ones and all the ones i've seen have been going for about $500.00 Most guys can't seem to make them profitable, with the amount of time and supplies it takes in building them. Pikes from Pickes Offroad told me he was looking for a cnc shop to do all his cuts for him. Nvanzee told me he burned through about $50 in cutting discs.
