Hey man let me me actually be helpful. Any bumper you get, as far as I know, is going to involve you drilling for appropriate fitment. Don't get overwhelmed though, just buy a drill or borrow one. Line up the winch, mark the holes and drill. You Can Do It.

you'll soon learn that unlike the faster sector of rc. rc crawling will require you to do a little mickey mouse fabing once in a while because not everything bolts up so easily. some building material and a random random screw jar will be your best friend

you will never and i mean never have a rig that is completly one brand if you want it just right.

stick w/ it though you'll learn a lot and the end product will be somthing you'll proud of.

Well said guys ( Up and Over, NeXt ). Nice of you to actualy help him out.

Depending on the truck you are going to put it on, some the vendors on this site have tube bumpers that it would bolt right up to if you wanted. But the fun part for me is making new things or moding them .

i used the savage front bumper on my highlift and it mounted very nicely inside of it. http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-HPI-SAVAGE-X...item5d2747802f had to hone out the stock holes if i remember right but it fabbed up nicely when i finished.
