Another amazing job there Trucker. You gotta patent that thing and start producing many more. Keep up the good work!

I'd bet folks would pay at least two grand for one of your one-off bumpers.

Little much, but what do I know. Definitely looks well built.

How much does all that extra weight affect you mpg? And what did you paint it with?
