    I'll be honest, when you talked about cutting that in half to make a smaller bumper, I really didn't think it would come out clean, but that's impressive. Very nice looking.

    Did you cut the big park bench in two, cut out a strip then re-weld and chrome it?

    That is very cool!!! I think I like it as much as small bumpers.Love the sharp lines of the park bench compared to the roundness of the small ones.Nice job man!!!
