Bumper modification

[William65]

The bumper that was on the truck when I bought it was mangled and found another one through a family friend. It was in decent shape but I thought it would be a great idea to trim the corners…ended up being a lot more work than I had thought. The winch extensions that were on the truck were a bear to remove solo, but the bolts eventually broke free. Got the new-to-me bumper back to my shop and started grinding and painting. Got it finished and had to beat the bumper brackets back into their original shape and painted. Don’t have a picture of it during the daylight, but it turned out better than I figured it would.

Looks nice!

Good job, looks great. Need some form of hook on there for pulling from the front though maybe?

Any reason why you didn't keep the bottom lip, just pie slice/section it above the bottom bend?
