Has anyone found an after-market or affordable custom bumper for a T100? If not, any advise for making my own?

My favorite is an ARB style. Or something similar. Front and/or rear.

As far as I'm aware, the only 3 options still available for a T100 are the Warn Trans4mer , which is a grill guard with winch mount, but it fits over the stock bumper. The second is a pre runner lightbar from Downey Off Road and it also fits over the stock bumper. The other is from Kennesaw Mountain Fabrication . It's a full front end replacement, similar to the ARB plate bumper. Lots of people have had poor service from Ken Mtn., but the ones I've seen look good. ARB never made a T100 bumper and TJM made two but they're both discontinued.

Downey light bars are cheep cheep right now, I have one in the mail for 100 bucks plus shipping... of course I am going to need to make up a new skid plate, but anything is better than the hunk of plastic under the truck...

Thanks Creeper, The front bumper at Kennesaw Mountain is exactly what I'm in search of.

...but damn that's expensive! Looking at over $700 - seems a good area shop should be able to fab something like that up for less...

yeah, you got a better idea. Everything is expensive. I looked at badlandbumpers, they have some cool stuff too and it's close to home, but depending on what options I get Im still lookin' at 5 to 7 hundred.
I guess I could wait til I find some equipment to use and build it myself, but Id rather just have somethig now.
Any shop rate is $45-$65/hr. which adds up quickly too.
