I guess you are tired of hearing this from me, but anything of any metal used for bumpers are worthless in my opinion. They will not give after as plastic/nylon will, and once any metal bends, they are bent and will not turn to its original shape. And the IF they don't bend, the next weak link on the chassi will.

It says that the rpm bumper is over 6.5'' wide. So just take a ruler and look at what 6.5'' would cover in the front. Then you will have an idea if it's what you want.

RE: Front bumpers baja
this is a front bumper i made myself ive smashed it into street gutters since then , and the soft alloy bent up nicely cos its a really soft grade , all i had to do was unbolt it from the chassis and hit it back to shape with a mallet these are the only pics i have right now , if you want ill take better photos of it just ask if interested
