    I'd been looking for a nice bumper for my 2012 for a while. I researched all the different manufacturers and fabricators. I know a lot of fabricators on this website do amazing work!
    The biggest problem for me was having to drive my truck 60 miles away to get the work done and leave the truck there for however long. Then I saw some trucks built by a guy that works 10 minutes from my home. I went and visited Ryan's (owner) shop and saw some amazing builds he's got going. The work is quality and he's got a great eye for design. The shop is Kibbetech in simi valley, ca. I think some of you guys have seen his work and can vouch.
    Anyways, after waiting a month...the man's really busy building trophy trucks...I finally got my truck in there. I gave Ryan some idea of what I wanted from other bumpers I'd seen...and told him to run with it.

    As far as im concerned, he did an amazing job! He designed and fabricated a functional bumper that'll definitely help me out with some issues I was having with the stock bumper and skid.
