TJM 17 Bumper

This is my old bumper. You can tell from the bottom that it saw some action. The sides in front of the wheels got bent up when I was attempting to get up a big rock. I took off the bumper and bent the plastic back out, but the plastic was discolored from being flexed back and forth. My solution was to get a set of tin snips and cut the offending pieces off. After the going over with the tin ships I went back with a razor blade to smooth the rough edges. It may not be the prettiest solution but it didn't cost anything and it increased the approach angle in front of the wheels.
