rear bumper build
Finally got myself a tube bender and started fabbing up a much needed rear bumper. I used BendTech Pro software to help me not waste any tube. Its made from Sch 40 1.5 inch pipe which is just under 2 inch diameter. What are your thoughts?

finished up and painted rustoleum stainless steel for easy touch up. Licence plate mounts in the reciever so I can remove it for towing or pulling stuff

Boy that sure is fancier then the angle iron welded to my frame.

Looks like you know what you're doing, good work!

That bumper looks awesome! How did you like using the bend tech pro software? Is it worth it?
