OUTLAW'S ROLLED
BUMPER
The Rolled Bumper from Outlaw Customs was
designed to create a smooth look by matching
the bumper's lines with that of the body's lines,
playing off of the old-style, hot rod look.

12GA. CUSTOMS' LIFT BUMPER
An alternative to the flip-style bumper is available from Jeff Battler's 12ga
Customs chrome shop in Guelph, Ontario. It's called the "lift-style" bumper. Its
opening mechanism pushes the bumper out and up, as opposed to flipping
the bottom of the bumper outward. "It's pretty cool because it is so universal,"
Battler says. "It can be used on amy model truck."
