    Looks good, but not to crazy about the practical aspects.

    It doesn't appear to provide mounts for the turning lights, so to use that bumper, ou may have to relocate those to the corners, if you haven't already. Also, it provides almost no protection for the corner lights, assuming you offroad.

    Installed it a few days ago. They shipped the bumper with no packing, making It difficult to take the ups labels off. The bumper is straight weld porn. Built really well. Fits perfectly on my 95. I got free shipping when I added another item to my cart. Use Facebook as a code, to get 10% off. I think my total was 463 with a t shirt. You will have to do the blinker mod. I also drilled a few holes to mount aux lights on the bumper. Overall, highly reccomended. I posted a few pics on my Instagram. #rippstik

    Per the pictures online, it doesn't appear to even be completely welded? Do you have any pictures of it installed? Did you paint or powdercoat it?

    Bumper was assembled completely. You need to paint it. I added a stinger for kicks.
