    Yes the tubes are capped. I use weld on tube caps from Barnes 4wd.
    http://www.barnes4wd.com/Weld-on-tube-end_p_49.html

    I decided not to bring the tube all the way down and weld it to the top of the bumper because that is how I see it done on most other bumpers that have that same style. I wanted to make it different, that's why I capped it instead of going flush to the top of the bumper.

    Thats cool. I like it. What size light bar do you have in there? Is there room to put a couple of light tabs on the top of the tube too?

    Thank you! I appreciate it. I have tried test fitment of the current bumper on the new models and I need to change a few things on the upper portion. Hopefully I will have a 12+ model in production soon.

    Thanks, I appreciate that! Not sure if I will put a 2012+ version into production. I have only sold a few of the 05-11 versions and im not sure if that's the direction I want to go with my business (building production bumpers at least). I do enjoy building custom bumpers for various vehicles, but don't know if im into the production stuff yet!

    No I have not designed one yet. I have not had a customer bring in a 12+ yet and I do not know anyone that could get me access to one.
