I found a place here in Arizona called Stone Soup Metal Works and the owner Doc has custom made for me the perfect rear bumper for my Commander.

looks good what did you paint it with.
I don't see the backup sensors... Did you figure out how to mount them?
I painted it with Krylon FusionQuote:

WOW!! that looks awesome!! i'm always much more impressed when i see paint on the finished product... i ship everythign raw and there are some things that i never see painted. i like the high & low lights all the angles make... paint job looks great!
That is awesome. I cannot get over how good it looks. My wife is gonna get mad cuz I am constantly lookin at this rear end.
just a quick update-
the production process is being refined as i write this. my computer crashed a couple weeks ago, so much so that the c: drive was unable to be recovered. the crappy thing is that it was only 6 weeks old, the worst thing was the fact that i hadn't backed it up to my server in that time. jon was generous enough to let me borrow his commander to re-draw the bumper and make all new files. the waterjet shop will be cutting away this morning and i will be building my first two over the weekend. this run was plagued by set-backs from the beginning but now looks like it's going to come together. i'm hoping i can keep the prices as i posted earlier but those were all based on computer simulation with the waterjets and guestimating by the steel forming shop. the ever increasing steel prices seem to be working against me - we've taken several hits this year that have totalled over 25% increase... ugh!
i will be sure to post the final products.
to those that made the orders, i appologize. to those that plan to order in the future, it will be a much smoother process.
So what is the final price on these things of beauty ?I didn't see them posted on this thread ..
