I really appreciate the offer Arturs, but i already have my steel in hand and shipping from CA to NJ and back wouldn't be worth it. Did some more cutting today, i need ear plugs :dizzy:

Looks great so far. What gauge steel are you using? Also I really love the fab you made. Its really low profile and looks like it would really improve your approach angle.

The third pic down shows the 2" angle, the holes match the tow hook holes on the frame. I'm going to make a plate that slides into the frame holes w nuts welded to them. I'm doing an extra bolt per side too. I might have 2 more that tie into the crossmember too.

Whats the height from the bottom of your steel bumper to the top? I want to compare it to the stock bumper.

The face is 6". You can't really compare to the stocker though because the plastic bumper slopes downward from the grill. Mines tucks under the grill and sits flat.
