    Thanks! I was contemplating modifying it to match the lines of the fenders. Might be a good reason to buy a welder!

    I think you would have to build new "wings" for the bumper. Good thing the all pro bumpers have removable pieces.

    I was thinking of trimming the edges and just re welding the cap pieces, and shimming the "wings" out.

    That would possibly work too.


    But you really don't need an excuse to buy a welder lol.
