Picture Request- kind of an odd one

[Butch]

Anyone have a pic of their GMT400 while they had their bumper off?

Probably not what your looking for but it's what I got.

That helps quite a bit, appreciate it. Unfortunately I can't disclose my plans more pics the better especially from a 3/4 angle

Glad I could help. I need to look around a little more because I am pretty sure I have some more pictures somewhere.

No need I found this one in Mike's 88-98 album...

What do y'all think? Do it (only after I SAS, this would just be a fab project I'd have on the side) or would the bodylines throw it off to much? Keep in mind these aren't drawn as it'd be built

I feel that the squareness of our front ends makes it kind of hard to have a bumper with so many different angles in it. But that's just my opinion.

That doesn't bother me as much as the bumper still has hard lines to it, what kills me its as much as our frame hangs below our body and the bottom of the bumper not being level with the bottom of the body (I could build it like that but I feel it'd be to tall) it would make the grille look crammed. I love the idea of trimming a GMC grille of the negative space and giving it that newer body feel though.

It'd be like the Road Armor bumper but with my twist (I had to draw more angles and lines in the picture to give it definition)

I just feel like the truck has to have a complete beef look to it to make one of those bumpers work, I do however like the ranch hand full replacements.

Oh yeah for sure, there's no way I'd bolt it on my rig until I SAS

I got a couple with bumper on and off from a couple years back, had to replace some stuff.
