To NCPhoto, I make them. Or rather, now that I've got a baby coming and can no longer get reasonably priced insurance (two separate issues), I'm just selling finished skidplates, and kits for skidplates and bumpers that you weld together.

viewtopic.php?f=35&t=4117I'm actually surprised how the kits have taken off. Many off-roaders want to build their own stuff, but they don't have much idea of where to start making something like a bumper. They seem to like that they can weld together and finish their own bumper, while at the same time knowing that it's an engineered solution (designed by a guy who is an engineer at his real job) that doesn't need nearly as much weld as is on it (i.e. if their welding isn't 1000% up to par, it's still probably not going to fall apart), and is a field tested and proven unit.
And yeah, Bacon, I don't think I've made the exact same bumper more than a couple times. Everybody wants different tube setups, 2" receiver or not, 2" frenched in lights, 5" frenched in lights, rattle can, no paint, powderdcoat, 3" body lift or non-body-lift, etc...
