Default craigslist jeep bumpers

i posted the link awhile back about getting bumpers made for my jeep by some dude off craigslist. for some reason i went with my first instinct and had a feeling the dude was legit. anyway i went to his work shop we talked, i took his words for it and dropped off a deposit to give him the green light. well about 2 weeks later (today), i pick up the bumpers he promised. here's what i can tell say about his fabrication, they look like they are made for an armor truck lol. the back bumper got to weight at least little over 100 pounds. had him mounted 2 D ring brackets and a hitch. they are not just weld to the bumper they are cut and weld all the way through the bumper and weld up on the back side of the bumper for strength. the front bumper is the first one he done that is different than all the previous one he made. he drop the winch plate lower this way it won't block the cold air going to the radiator. the front also have D ring brackets 2 light brackets on top of the stinger, also i have an option to mount 2 more lights on the winch plate if i decide not to mount the winch. dropping them off the body shop tomorrow and have them paint it flat black color.
