im pretty sure its a DIY job (booger welded and primed), i think it sees use (hood and the fact that it is angled up), and as bad as it looks, i dont think it would look bad with the right lights and paint (maybe diamond plate trim)

it would look real nice with bark embedded in a dent from busting some new growth pines, with a tastey buck tucked into my roof basket, and the winch properly secured...

lmao that sounds like a challenge to make a bumper like that but only NICE yet functional...
as i posted before: with provisions for aux. lights, receiver mounted winch when i so deem needed etc & the tubular steel sub frame with aluminum skins & yes, maybe diamond plate but powder coated

@ wlorton, i'd put one of those ZR2 bumpers on my Blazer. nice light mounts, killer D-ring's. and the first ***-hat that tried the ol' "do my brake lights work?" test-BAM0!

That's pretty sweet Curtis. I wouldn't mind having something as intimidating as that on my truck. I hope it's not made of steel though. That's a hell of a lot of weight to throw on the front, not to mention killing your MPG because of the extra weight. It doesn't looks very aero dynamic either lol.
