Cody's bumper is built that way as well.

Neil, your bumpers look awesome! I definitely like your designs. Mine are still in the "fabbing" process. I love your black on red swagger....it looks so good!

I'm looking too do something simple with the exhaust.. any ideas? should I bring it straight back from the y-pipe through a magnaflow then dump it before the rear tire?

Nice work - A couple of days with the grinder and it will look factory!

HA HA! You've been watching to many episodes of "Car Warriors" Body filler is Nue Skule, Old School is weld high, grind down smooooooth, lead floated in if you need to, high-build primer and sand that down, then paint!
