    I have a Hot Metal Fab Hybrid bumper. I bought it as a kit from HMF to save some money and do it myself. Being in college and working full time, I just don't have the time of energy to finish it anymore. It is half finished so you could just hold up the other pieces for the other side and mark then from what I have done and then weld them on.

    Might possibly trade for some taco parts but mainly looking to sell it. Located in NorCal area around Chico, no shipping as this thing is obviously big and bulky. As for price, make me an offer!

    For price just make me an offer and it has a pretty good angle to it, it's not straight up and down like it looks. The picture just looks that because it's sitting angled back on the ground

    No offense but what the hell is this?? If someone is claiming they are a fabricator and producing this kind of fit then that's absolutely insane. IMG_5900.jpgIMG_5901.jpg

    So glad I chose Stellar Fab, I was this close to going to HMF because they were closer. Glad I didn't...

    @Jt_dirt7 did you modify that at all or did it come that way? I see you have a chop saw out so I'm just wondering.

    Just to clarify, HMF didn't do the welding or cutting on it, a buddy of mine started it for me.

    Thanks for the clarification. We don't need a shop getting slammed over something they didn't do. :D

    I don't understand your what you're trying to say? Yes it has their name on it but as I said in the initial post, I bought it as a kit

    I've seen other stuff made by hot metal fab and it is pretty nice stuff. This shouldn't reflect on his work at all

    It's clear that whoever started this is not a fabricator of any kind. Also, likely doesn't know how to use a tape measure

    This would explain why it's called a hybrib bumper and not a hybrid bumper...
