My Neon > Your Truck

What happens when you need more plate steal for your Jeep bumper but dont have a truck to haul it? Use the neon of course!

It was about 100lbs of 1/8" thick steel.

Pics of said jeep bumper:

and to think... your car could even be lower if you bought the damn wheels i told you to buy. /smack/

Haha, Like I NEED to be lower. I bottom out in my driveway every day as is.

As far as the Jeep bumper goes, Obviously its not done yet and its a typical BUDGET design for the ZJ's. I could have put some more angles in it but I really didnt want to to be perfectly honest for simplicity sake. I understand that it looks HUGE for the front of this jeep. Something is just off IMO. But it will look better once I install the lift kit and the wider, deeper offset wheels with 31" tires.

Its not as bulky as the ARB Bumper

After building it and test fitting it I think Ive should have done something a little lower profile like this:

But its only my first one and Im only a plasma torch away from changing it

I think your bumper reminds me of the trucks on the TV show "JACKED" on speed....they have those kind of bumpers for blocking in car thiefs.

Good Job tho..

I have transported more things in my neon that logically shouldn't have ever fit. My mom calls it a Neomino LOL.

Haha, When I built my work bench for my shop I had 20 2x4s and 4 4'x6' rips of ply wood. That was before the coilovers and the rear sat about were it is now. Its a good thing I only live about 2 miles from Home Depot and the local steel shop. Otherwise I would prolly get pulled over.
