Thanks. I bought a 4x8 sheet of 1/8 diamond plate for $147 from Comal Iron, local scrap yard. I've built to front bumpers and my rear bumper. Guy that I made the front bumper for just ordered the rear. Between misc materials and selling the two bumpers, I'll come out with two bumpers for myself free and clear and a little scratch in my pocket. And just to clarify, I didn't over charge my buddy on the price. If you buy metal in bulk you can cut down on cost tremendously.

Good work!
