D3F0 Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 (edited) Hey so today I made a cool front bumper for my Subaru RX. Its not done yet still going to build in a custom two piece skid plate into it. All I did to make this was cut the bumper support out until the only thing left was the support. Welding some steel tubing into it untill it started to take shape. I am pleased with how it came out i just need some WRC looking lights to complete the look I am going for. The rear bumper is 4x2 steel frame rail that I stacked onto each other and simply bolted them up to the stock location of the rear bumper support so I can switch back easily. Stock Bumper support cut in half already. Then removed some more of it Welded the first 1x1 steel bar into the beast Welded an interesting shape and stuck with it Slowly started adding more metal Hood closed and fender just hanging on Now moving onto the back I built a custom trunk and frame into the car here it is without the bumper. Looks intense already. Caged intense trunk also another view Custom rear bumper Drilling holes Don't mind the welds =) flux core wire no gas in the winter usually with snow coming in haha Also some trunk pics other side Edited January 28, 2016 by D3F0 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D3F0 Posted January 29, 2016 Author Share Posted January 29, 2016 (edited) Thanks guys and yea the weather is going to be really nice up 58 degrees next week so I might just go absolutely nuts on the body work this weekend. I just grabbed two quarts of POR 15 going to test it on all the frame rails so I can put it on the ground do a quick test drive and not worry about the frame dying again.

D3F0 Posted February 1, 2016 Author Share Posted February 1, 2016 64 degrees today if it wasn't for class I would be grinding, finishing and painting metal all day today. I almost done with the truck frame of this car will make a thread once I am finished later this week, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
