i dont know what it would cost for a KJ
but there is a guy down here in south LA who does mega custom fab work and that kinda work is not cheep and to build one that would realy work and not just look good would be big $$$$$$ but i would think you could get some thing in side that would look 1/2 way ok and work for around $1000
by work i mean save your butt in a big roll not just some slo-mo side flop so to me if you wheel realy hard and go realy big then to pay well over $1000 is small change in the worst case roll

My estimate is around around $1500 on labor. Steel tubing is really expensive. For steel tubing (1.25" x 1/8") per foot is around $6-7. Your going to need around 60 feet of tubing = $600-700. Add paint = $400-500. And he's gonna charge you on a bunch of other stuff, like the machines he used (bender, notcher, welder), don't forget about taxes. For a grand total is about $2500-3000. To be on the safe side, add about a grand to the total. If you really want it done, get all the tools and do it yourself. You could even build a custom bumper (like the one on the Liberator).
