I think the poll is missing an item <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/zombie.gif" alt="" /> and it looks good <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />.......Joe know's what I'm talking about and Smiley has pics. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" />

Joe is doing a good job with the aftermarket,he is not making a killing with these bumpers.He mention'd his time etc,but failed to mention all the expendables not sure which
sanding type wheels he uses and grinder wheels but they aren't cheap.$10/$20 here and there add up.

Yes you can build a getto simple rear bumper and sell it for under $200.........hehehe plus shipping on an 80# thing.
But it would be just that,a chunk of metal,it would not look good........excuse me ....depends on your taste.
But if someone was to ask you where you got that bumper,would you necessarly want your name mention'd?

anyways.......

On a second gen that type of bumper would look like <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/butwiggle.gif" alt="" />,straightup.There is too much junk hanging down etc.that needs to be hack'd off to clean up the frame area,not to mention when you remove the plastic cover something has to be done about the sides,and that's just from the looks department.........not sure what I mean,then one weekend remove your bumper and stand back(it's only a couple bolts)and be amazed at the factory ugliness left from removal of the stock junk.


anyways enough ranting,I like most of the aftermarket product's for our trucks but I prefer.........no.....I enjoy
making my own pcs......it let's me stray from the norm.

one more thing <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" /> and <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />
