Rear Bumper Project.

Geez, maybe I should get my eyes checked cause I can't see nothing out of the back window! Well, maybe just a little on the drivers side.

One more batch of pictures since all that left is to do the receiver, which won't happen for a coupla days...while I was at it I painted my hood.

Maybe he should give you the truck when he is done fixing it up since on the plate it says "Premier Ford".

 

[cdsl227]

Don't worry the Premier Ford frame comes off when the plate goes to the Tire Carrier.

Sorry nothing personal, I've been getting around to that...just didn't seem as important as the mods. I'm gonna put a frame like the one on the front on the tire carrier.

It has Ford emblems on it.

and then maybe a parking/brake light.

Ok, so the bumper took it's first hit today.

But it took it like a champ!

I was in traffic and a Ford Van was just being a general Dlckhead (intentionally, if I might add), so I blew the horn , the Mac horn of course. When we started moving the old guy in front of me took the right lane to pass the van and the bozo in the van kinda veered right to spook him, then I took the right lane to pass the van and he tried to run me into the sidewalk and when he saw I was still there he tried to push me into a pedestrian- oh, no! Not at 8:00am when i haven't even had a cup of coffee yet!

I dove at him, the 2 azzes in the van were laughing- he dove at me- I DOVE at him enough to move him into the oncoming traffic lane (there's no traffic coming from Manhattan in the morning, so...) and whacked his front bumper with my rear bumper...then once I was in front of him- I slammed the brakes!

I was trying to stamp him with the 3/8 steel tabs sticking out from the tire carrier and the tow ball...but he didn't go for it.

It wasn't even road-rage it was simply an attitude adjustment.

I know it's all stupidity, but all I can offer is one warning- I PAY TOO DAMN MUCH FOR INSURANCE!

I have no problem with slamming somebody when they intentionally do dumb **** and jeopardize my safety- if there's gonna be an accident- I might as well be in control of it and YES there's is such a thing as a controlled accident.

I had one guy intentionally stripe the drivers side with his mirror one time and then drive off like nothing happened- I made him eat the tow ball and then drove off on him.

Tit-for-Tat.

Some people are such azzholes because they think nobody is going to do anything...oh, I don't want to scratch my car- that's why I'm armoring mine...payback is a b!tch!

Anybody got a little Rustoleum?

No bends, just barely a scratch.

Ya know- I started out this morning being a nice guy...but somebody always p!sses on my parade, I really didn't want any grief, but I felt much better after trading paint.

Now you can all bash me for being an idiot.

 

[sapogmxr]

thats interesting. good story. I might need to get a horn like that. haha

 

[John_Rock]

Now you can all bash me for being an idiot.

Nah! But, now I think we have a new phrase for the board members.

It'll go like this...
Yeah, this dude cut me off today on my way to work, so I did a "cdsl227 road rage combo" on him!

LOL

Good job on the home made armor!

 

[jasonb]

Yes, but big, burly, square rocksliders to match the bumpers.

Looks good I dig the front bumper. The only thing about the rear- do you do things the hardest way you can think of? I bet you have some serious time in that thing!! It turned out cool! I dig the TR front. What kid of snorkel is it?
