If your being serious, check it out..and maybe we can talk about shipping one here as well, I'm sure we could work something out!

Yeah, I'd have my current front bumper taken off and one of those beautiful creations added on instead. I'd buy another winch and use the multi mount winch for the rear. If somebody can really get these here in the U.S. for a somewhat reasonable price they would sell quite a few!

havent seen those bumpers here herm59. thw i havent made much looking into them. ive seen them for toyotas hilux, and other mid size trucks. but non for a ranger. but my guess is also u might get them cheeper taking pics of what u would like with ur own needs and have it custom built.

i love the first one, thow id throw some brs for protecting the headlights (and to grab on my cables to tighten my basket lol..)

The company I work for makes a beastly bumpers for hilux, land cruisers hmmwv and suburban's. The issue would be making them for rangers would be out of all our price ranges.

not sure in other countries here. but there are lots of f150- and dodge ram 1500 and 2500. but for midsize trucks there are lots of variety.. all diesel like the mitsubishi l200, yota hilux, tacoma, mazdas, nissan frontier, navara. all diesel atleast so there u get a lil extra power to copensate the smaller size

Just died out I guess. Plus, the shipping would be high as hell from South America to the states. If the bumper were 400 the shipping my guess would be 200 +...I doubt that bumper is 400 or less though.

One of the South American guys needs to chime in on this bumper, PM member "comunistico," he lives in Costa Rica so he can probably find something out for you.

lol. 3 year old thread, but ressurected for a good reason.

Ive seen a few custom bumpers fabricated in the states. Not many though.

All of their bumpers are crazy expensive.

I agree. I always thought they were huge.
