Thanks <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />

Got busy at work, but had the day off today to finish the bumper. The bender works awesome, but a HF air/hydro cylinder, and Bend-Tech software are both on my list as soon as I can afford them. The $60 HF notcher works fine so far though it needed to be modified to make the sharp-angled notches for the final two pieces.

The Sport is getting tube bumpers, sliders and eventually an inside cage. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/notooth.gif" alt="" />

Not a shabby job for a first time there Danny. Nice lines.

I'm broke, and it's not even hydro powered yet. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/scared.gif" alt="" />

Bender and 1.75x210* die, just under $600

Thanks for the feedback guys.

The ends of the bumper will tie into the sliders, eventually.
