Cowboy bumpers

[MadManAndrew]

So I've been toying around with different ideas for a front bumper, and came up with these three. What do y'all like best? I like the last one best personally, but I think the first one would look good without the lights. I don't know.

If I had to choice I would go with the last one just me though.

The first one, but put the lights in the bumper.

[jitteryguy]

I like the second one but agree with Pyrotechnic, put the light's in bumber on which ever one you choose.

[Pop's C-10]

^ I agree, but with round lights..

[maxxxy]

I like the second one if that white part was gray too.
What are the slots in the third one?

Are you making provisions for a winch?

[MadManAndrew]

No, no winch provisions. I'm gonna do a rear winch if I ever get one. The slots aren't really for anything, I just kinda liked the way they looked. I don't like the look of rounds in the bumper, but I'll draw it up with some rectangle fogs or something after school today. Thanks for the opinions guys

maybe?

[MadManAndrew]

Oh, I really like that grill guard Don't really like the center lights though...I'm gonna see what I can do with that. Thanks for the input man.

What I like about mine, is that it gives me somewhere to stand while I work under the hood, which can be a little tricky on a lifted truck.

yup square is good, protect the lights if you can
i like the push bar for standing/leaning over but now I'm pickin up an army grill protector i found

[MadManAndrew]

Alright, this is what I ended up with after moving things around for awhile. Opinions? The smaller part of the grill guard is 1x right now, thinking about changing it to 2x...Just looks kinda weird.

[85sierraclassic]

i would step it up to 1.5 or 2x for the outer and 2.5 or 3x for the main hoop just depends on preference i geuss.

This is a custom one done by the PO of my truck, if it gives you any ideas:



- welded hollow bars
- platform for standing, ~1' wide
- 3/8" thick steel all around
- receiver hitch behind license plate
- winch compatible
- mounted turn signals

[justinburnett]

Doesn't that block your lights?

Kinda like it though.

[MadManAndrew]

Looks really tough, too big and bulky for me though. I want something clean and mean looking.

[Tex_50613]

here's the pics of 2 that I've done for ya like what ya have drawn
here's the new one without a brushgaurd yet, keep in mind I have a 3" body lift that I'm covering with mine so it may look a little tall.




and here's the one I built 5 years ago on the truck


oh yeah and matching rear that I just built and installed




nice desighs so far

[MadManAndrew]

Front looks good but that rear is sweet looking! I'd love to put something like that on a newer truck when I get one.

[chevymadness]

i know a buisness that make these bumpers they look great for old style trucks but very pricey.I really likw the one andrew put i would do that one but the one you have looks good to im just not a fan of the big square in the middle maybe you should put lights in the actual bumper.
