You need some turn signals too. As good as it looks, I think it would look better in MOAB next weekend 6/25 - 6/28.

That's awesome. One question, is it 'airbag compliant' and x2 on the need for turn signals.

I said"Hey babe come see this".
She asked where I was when I took those pics. :roll: Women

When I told her that wasn't me she said that your thing is bigger than mine. :oops:
Scout,you got some explaining to do.

I really want a bumper like that. Anyway you could tell us how much it ran you and where you got it done or how you did it?

Ok I dont have alot of time but I will try to answer all the questions.

Ok it cost me a case of beer and the cost of the steel. Im not too sure about the air bag question.... I hope so.. lol. As for the turn signals I am going to get rid of the stock fog lamps (2006 KJ has already claimed them) and put JK turn signals there. Im just waiting to get to Colorado to put them in since I dont have much time (Im still packing). I did all the work at TXpro in Lampassas, TX. Sean did most of the work but I did my far share of it. He also said that if anyone wants to stop by his shop go for it. He wants to build more bumpers for KJs, but they all have to be one off.... he wants tobuild one of a kind bumpers :D .

I also got my new defender rack and put it on with some KC slim lights. I still have to buy two more so it looks funny with the two.

I will get better pics tomorrow.

All you would have to do is get ahold of him, give him an idea of what you want and how you want it to look, a case of keystone light, bring your KJ, and help him build it.
