i will get better daytime shots tomorow. obviously i ran out of daylight. i started at 3:30pm and finished around 6pm. took longer tha i expected and was more of a pain in the ass than i expected, but very well worth it.


edit: i lightened up some of the pics, but i will still take more and post up tomorow.

Is the Shrockworks already sold?

That new one looks nice. Is it another one of Richard's creations?

the shrock was sold to pay for the new bumper a while ago.

yes, Richard did make this one.

the new bumper looks good

[Bear]

Wow, Really like the bumper. Where did you get the bumper done at? I have been looking into getting a tube bumper done.

[tmorgan4]

Richard is the man to go to for that kind of thing. He's all the way across the country, but it seems like he has an Xterra (or measurements) to work off of. I'll have to dig his email up or I'm sure someone else has it.

Nice bumper. I liked my Shrock's front and rear, but tubing is the way to go, much lighter. Not that the ARB's or TJM's are heavy...

[Alpine Spirit]

SWEEET!!!!

Oh and yes that damn ARB is heavy too!!!

Most fab shops can make any tube bumper they just need your vehicle for initial measurements.

stinger bumpers rule nice one ninja
