Need a new bumper
 
I was wheeling in the snow this past weekend and I ripped off my plastic bumper. The plastic below the chrome where the fog lights are held. Instead of buying another piece of plastic that I am going to rip off I'd like to find something tough. I called a local fab shop and they quoted my about $1000 in labor plus materials. That is a little too high for me. I was wondering if there is anything already pre made or manufactured. The only one I can seem to find is the Dixon Brothers racing bumper. http://www.dixonbrosracing.com/prodd...=DBR-012&cat=1 I would appreciate it if somebody can tell me of other aftermarket bumpers that I can't find. Or maybe soembody local (phoenix area) knows of a shop or can fab me up one. Thanks

I went there today and the door was locked. There was no sign of their hours and I looked in the phone book and online and can't find a phone #. I looked around and all I saw were lowered trucks. I know that 4 wheelers does fab work. I really don't want to spend 1300-1500 for a bumper.
Here is a link for the guys I called. http://www.4wheelers.com/

I just want a simple bumper like this one. It is tough,looks good, and gives me a better approach angle. No snowbank is gonna take this off :sgrin:

This bumper is $898 and I'd be happy to pay that much for such a well made clean product.

ya they do work on mostly lowered cars. its a new store so thats why they're not listed. i know someone who works their who might even build you one in his spare time if the shop wants too much money. ill ask him for the number and post it when i get a hold of him

623-581-0232. He said they would probably do it and to ask for mason he's the owner of the shop

Thanks bdiddy. I'll give them a ring sometime next week. I'll print out a few examples of what I'd like it to look like and show them that and my truck and see what they say. I also want to make sure that all important things up front are covered by this bumper like the radiator and its hoses etc. or probably my skid or a new one will cover that up. Since they work on cars they probably know what they're doing.

You want one of those bumpers like the dixon one?
Send me a pic or sketch of what you want.
I'll build it and.... Put it on ebay.
And you can buy it.
After I see the sketch of what you want, I will give you a ball park figure of price.
If interested. If you want to see some of my work go to...
