I hope you're wrong, we spent quite a bit of time thinking about mounting. We couldn't see bolting such a beefy bumper to the crumple zone tabs on the frame. As it is, the frame material thickness is by far the weakest link. If it does let go it will probably be from ripping out of the frame.

hmmm... well your judgement seeing it in person up close and shaking it is alot better than my opinion formed by a few pictures.
i can't really conclude for sure, but it looks like all that is holding it on are the two tubes coming out of the frame. if the guys at the welding shop think its fine for this application, then it probably is.

I agree. It would look better if it was flush with the fender. But it does look pretty good on there. Put a skid plate on there, and it'll look great.

Ill second the skid plate..But I like how it turned out! You could do a intake mod but leave the fender resinater in the fender.. Make sure its sealed and cut a access point in the well.. Make it your fluid res.. just a thought..
