I started with some 6" C Channel and drilled a couple holes...

Then I fabbed up some shackle mounts...

Now I just need to finish my brush guard and mount the winch...

I like it cuz it's simple small and does all you need it to. I'm also a fabricator and have been pondering different styles especially swing out rear bumper but can't find the hinge part by itself so I can start :/

I definitely plan on doing the rear, but i've got a long way left to go on the front! I'm still too chicken to try the 4" hole saw for the fog light holes, and i'm still saving up for the winch. It only cost me $18 bucks in scrap metal for the materials, but I've got another $30 in hardware (d-links and grade8 bolts)... I know it's not too fancy but i'm real happy with it so far!

Here's some better pictures...

Nice looking bumper. Wish I had the skills to do things like this. Would have save me some serious cash, but I don't so I will just admire your work.
