Prerunner front bumper pics?

I wanna build me a prerunner bumper for my 07' ranger 4x4 that fits atleast 4 kc slimlite foglights and has a diamond plate skidplate underneath and in front that shows coming from the bottom if that makes any sense. Anyone have any pictures of the different ones you have seen or made? I have a welder and pipe bender and all of that so it shouldn't be too hard to do.

I really like outdoorsman's front bumper. But i know it probably won't be considered a "prerunner" bumper.

Call it what you want. I call it tough! It's lightweight compared to a full winching bumper, and it's just as functional for what I do. I did bend the .95 thick aluminum skid plate on a rock coming out of a river bed. I need to get some pics of that.

I'm looking to do kind of the same thing. Will a bumper made for the 93-97 fit on a 98+. I know the mounting points will probably be different, but I can fab brackets and what not, but is it the same width? and would the body lines be close enough? I just don't have a tube bender and only a 110 welder w/o gas, so I can't really make my own w/o buying new tools.

Thats cause IIRC both are custom made so technically no one really "makes" them.

Jason , If your any good at drawing and making plans just draw up what you want pull you bumper take all the mesurements make a good detailed Diagram and take it to local fab shops im sure you could get a one off made for a decent price .

I dont see , why not they may have to do alot more fitting and messuring than if you took them a detailed schematic that you drew up wich would cost more money , but I dont doubt that any competent fabricater could make you one form a picture . Find wich one you like and take it to some shops and see what they say , you might get a pretty good deal .
