It does look pretty cool, and there's a lot of work in it. But just doesnt seem too functional to me. No winch mount, no guards, no lights, a little oversized... It definately adds a good chunk of weight and doesnt help your approach angle at all. Other that it is a little pleasing to the eyes and unique I would have to pass. Sorry to burst your bubble. It would be a decent start though if you were to modify it.

it appears there's plenty of room for a winch in that thing...i like that. the beveled top front edge......thumbs down on that from me. looks like a ton of work on that thing....great craftsman ship on it. it's one of the closest to my style that i've seen on a ranger. little too tall for me though. nice job nonetheless.

i like it, but it needs some things. shackle hangers, winch since it has tons of room in it, and a brushguard similar to the trailready or roadarmor bumpers. it all would need alot more height on it to make the size look balanced.
******* hes got some work in that though. its nice and smooth, clean seams. i now understand how much work it is to undertake a project like that.

Love the rear bumper, but I am not completely sold on the front. There is no question that it is great quality and craftsmanship, but I agree the top and front should be flat. maybe at a 90* angle. I like it, but not on my truck. Don't feel bad though, nobody like the one on my truck either. Just remember, it's your truck, do what you want to it.

the problem is this: the bumper doesn't match the rest of the truck. have you ever seen a road armor bumper on a stock height chevy? it looks terrible, like a cow catcher! that same chevy lifted 6" with nice rims and 35" tires is sweet.
the fabrication on that bumper is phenominal!
i will say that it looks a little plain, but the fogs, winch mount, shackle tabs, grill guard or prerunner hoop can all be added to that.
i think i like the front bumper better than the back one, and they don't really match in the design style.
again, great fab work!
