So I had some crap lying around and I figured it could make a good bumper. WRONG!

Yes I know it's crooked I tried hitting crap to see if it was sturdy.

I was thinking of putting a peice of sheet alum. on an angle to give it the "look" but it just doesn't seem to be working for me...

I was planning to make some sort of prerunner style bumper out of this push gaurd but I think it's gonna be easier to just start from scratch.

So I wanna see some pics of prerunner style bumpers preferably on first or second gens, but whatever ya got will do.
 
Damn man... Your best bet is to start over. Start by making mounting brackets that bolt to the side of the frame rails and only stick out a couple inches and start building off of those. I don't really see that brush guard thing being good for anything, it's too wide for one thing. Check out the bumper thread in the body armor section.
