i love it. its pre-runner to the T. if you're looking for nit-picking and criticism, my only two cents would be that i liked the look of the four vertical bars below the winch plate. I figured you welded the plate over it for some under-carriage protection, but i really liked the look of the four bars...I've heard of people putting grated steel there for better airflow (but the validity/practicality of that Im unsure) while still maintaining some protection. just an opinion, over all it looks fantastic, great welding, clean work...it certainly shows

only thing I could think of addin is maybe a bar from the downward angled bars to the outer corner, kind re-inforce the fender protecter pipe. I really like the look of it without the plating aswell. if not adding an angled pipe upto corners than a larger diameter main beam to bulk up the look.
but thats all I can come up with, the design is good, as is the workmanship.

This bumper was created in about 18 hours.. from pipes that are laying down by the right front tire and a steel sheet... It is my fault partly, I wanted to have it back asap and wanted to get it done before the first naxja members meet here in phx... He finished at 5 and meeting was at 6... Next weekend I'm gonna bang it up and try to break it.. we'll see what happens... I'll post some pics...

You got a deal... PM me with details.. I can test out the 9500lbs winch while I'm at it...
Nice to see something a bit different.
I would have angled the top stinger back a bit further as it will get in the way just parking let alone doing three point turns in the bush. Needs bracing too. Still without it, you will be angling it back with the first nudge against a tree.
Look better too if you moved the solenoid box under the hood.
