Modified Waag bar, fixed bumper PICS!!

I was proud of myself on this idea, I finally fixed my crooked bumper and got rid of the bumper gap


The top pic is the stock waag bracket, and the bottom is the one I grinded and modded


Here it is installed, you can see how it contours the bumper perfectly


Final pic, my bumper looks great!

Probably half as strong as it was before, but its enough to keep it on their tight and sturdy. Im sure if i were to hit somethig they would snap, but o well.

I dont plan on trying to push anything with it, probably wasn't made for that anyways

While I have no inclination to go around testing the strength of my WAAG bar, I have used it to push my buddy's F-150 out of the mud, and have also been towed myself using the WAAG bar. I think your mod probably does reduce the strength of it significantly, but if you were in a serious accident it would have been totalled anyways. It looks really good!
