flames.. seems like everyone has em today.. from semi-trucks to pocket bikes.. but what IF.. what IFF, some1 painted the flame backwards - as in coming from the back of the car towards the front <- now that'd be something!

I saw a guy on TV painting fire....not flames...fire on an old coupe of some sort. It looked like the car was on fire. Fire is totally different.

I guess it would look good as long as you are driving in reverse

Back on track. From the pic it looks like you may have added to the stock bumper? Need some other pics.

yes the front bumper started out stock,then I welded the bar on and I also filled in all the holes in that held the rubber bumper guard in place.

Yeah, thats him. Awesome stuff.

Did you beef up the back of the stock bumper? I smacked stuff twice (replaced with new stock one afterward) with my old ranger and did body damage (grill, lights, etc). It needed something behind it.

Yeah, did you add to the stock bumper?
