tube pre-runner style front bumper

i was wondering what you guys thought about this bumper on my 06 with just a leveling kit and 35s' i really like this style of front bumpers, but don"t know if it will look goofy on just a leveling kit.it also looks like it doesn"t have any structuring on the inner fender wells. anyways, tell me what you guys think...

I'm not against it...

But seems way overpriced!

If you, or someone you knew, has a welder and tubing bender, you could make that for less than $200...

I am pretty sure a $200 bumper will look like a $200 bumper
if he had a bender and welder he would not have posted the question.
Here is a Carli designed bumper in use

A.D.D. was the same one lonestar was looking at in the first place. I think with the way it is setup on the truck in the first link. It will be to bulky just for a leveling kit. Just my .02

From that picture, ok I can see that it doesn't look like much..

The lazer cut parts alone are very involved with these bumpers..

Tell me now this looks like a 200 dollar scrap bin bumper being built..

i just haven"t seen a pre-runner front bumper on a fullsize dodge, i like the layout of a.d.d.s' bumper. i have a buddy who can build it for like 150 out of chromolly 1.5 inch fallowing that layout how it forms tightly to the grille and headlights.
