Can they do one for a cladded Av, by adapting the existing pattern? How bad was the cost?

I really want a bumper like this for the front of my '02. I will really want it if I go ahead and add a 4" lift and 33" tires like I'm considering.

I agree how much? and you could put that under zombie apocolpyse thread ( :laugh:

spelling ha)

Alright so it was not to bad on price we base our prices in order to try to make them cheaper then road armors and fab fours and similar bumpers and personally I like the way it looks more! We would have no issue making one for the cladded avalanche but we would need someone with a cladded Av to base our design off of since we only have my truck now to create what we have now! so hopefully someone springs for one soon so we can get a prototype for the cladded avys!

Its really not as bad as i expected i can pick it up by myself and im definitely not a big guy it will add a little weight when i put the winch in it but i think its somewhere around 150lbs as is... if i had to guess...

MyBigToy · Mar 18, 2014

I'm watching this one! If you get a design for cladded I could make arrangements to pick mine up in October. BTW, I also sent an email inquiry via the website.

Dakotawilk · Mar 18, 2014

wyotonka · Mar 18, 2014
