I found a few pictures somewhere the other day of a really nice rear bumper design and don't know where they were. I think it was on here, though.
If you have rear bumper pics, please re post or send them to me.

I know it wasn't Greg Davis. I have his.

Thanks,
Greg

Greg, there are 3-4 bumper designs in the Tech section, three of which are listed together "Marty's Bumper", "Marcin Gerc", and "Matt Moe". I think Tom Pearson has pics of Aedofab bumpers in his gallery, and maybe Garret (?) has a custom job too.

That is all Aedofab stuff. Email [email protected] for more info. Give him a little time to respond, he is in the shop working 24x7.

OK, that Aedofab rear for the DII looks just plain badass. I would have to say that is the best one I have seen. Dunno about the strength, but that thing looks awesome. Not the DI rear though...

Strength is not an issue with the Aedofab stuff. It's built to take a licken and has. If you like the aggressive look, then it is for you.

By the way, he does want to a DI version of the rear that is just like the DII (more angular). This would require cutting the little "end pieces" off the frame which serve no real structural purpose.

So Tom, I pose you a question...In the pictures of the DII bumper (the angular one), the part of the bumper on the quarter panels does not reach the edge of the wheel well, but on the pictures of the bumper on your truck (the one with the tractor lights), as far as I can tell, it does reach the well. If Aedofab were to make the "more angular" version, would the sides of the bumper reach the wheel well?

AROG - Mine doesn't hit the wheel well, either. It just looks closer because my well is trimmed more, and maybe it does come a little closer. If you wanted one that come to the wheel well, I am sure he would do it for you. There is just some room left purposely for trimming.
