So Ive been pondering what to do with my front bumper.. I want something with obviously more clearance with not looking to hacked up as much as the Sal mod, not that it looks bad but I want something more stock looking. Being that Im back in my hometown I have a lot of connections here, one being my buddy who is a welder. We have been discussing a possible bumper but that comes $$$. Last night I was thinking, what if I did a similar mod to the Sal bumper, but still incorporated the piece thats cut and angle it with more of a 90* angle with front of the bumper and use a piece of trimmer plastic with body filler for a piece going at maybe a 45* angle from center of bumper outwards and up to connect the flat piece going in. Not sure if everyone can vision exactly what Im talking about but it seems relatively simple given my backround and Ive even been researching a plastic welding technique with a sodering which may make this even easier. Being that bumper skins are relatively cheap, I am considering buying a new skin and working on it so I can take my time with it. This is just an idea for now, but Im really considering this as a mod in the very near future, just need to see what my buddy can paint skin for and compare to cost of steel bumper. The other issue is I have no idea what measurements or specs to give to my buddy for welding a bumper. The only bumper I really like is the Maniac. As I said not sure if anyone can picture what I want but Im still looking for opinions, just keep in mind $$$ is the major factor..
