new bumper for my truck

Im about 90% done with it. I left clearence for an 05 grille. still have to place about 2in across the top so you cant see the edge going under the grill and headlights.

Any comments about it good bad suggestions?

Did you hit a deer?

Should look pretty good. Needs paint. Bad lol

I have a buddy that owns a powdercoating setup with a oven just big enough for it to fit.

Looks good, I've gotta start on mine.

Looks good! Are you going to cut some holes for some led lights?

Not on this one. It's going to get two 2 inch Reece hitches added to it. Then I can make a hoop that will slide into them and I can mount lights to it, or swap it for a winch mount, or a platform to work on the truck on.

I have been considering bed lining the bumper but cant decide on one. Amy one have experience with some of the common diy bed liners like Hercules, Duplicolor (bed armor and truck bed coating), rustoleum..

I am wanting to spray the bottom of my cab as well to stop any potential rust as I plan to own this truck forever.

The Duplicolor is ****, don't waste your time money or effort on it, peeled in less than 2 months. Haven't tried Hercules, have a spray on product that has worked pretty good for us, I will get a picture of it.

Line-X is going to the hardest finish out there, as long as you bumper doesn't flex or take on huge rocks, it will likely look and last the longest. Still want to use my Al's Liner on something to test the quality of that brand, heard great things.

got it finished and mounted this morning. Got a great deal on herculiner 44bucks a gallon for the kit.
