I found A old set of nerf bars in the garbage, and they did not fit the blaster, and had no net. So i thought it might make a good bumper. So I got some pictures of my project scrap bumper.I:I

I hung it on my old bumper to get a idea of what it would look like.

I think I will add teeth to it and call it the MADDOG bumper.

hahahaha I'm not adding it to the old bumper. I should of explained the pictures better. I hung it on the old bumper to see if it was too big and if it would hit the tires when i turned the bars, AND IT DID, so i made it smaller.


Here is a picture of what i want it to resemble...............Be careful it might BITE:D

I hung the bumper with cable ties to get a look. I think it looks a little big but when i add some monster teeth to it then it won't look to big. I also think it needs to move out about 2".
