Did you bend the tubing and make the extension from the bumper holding the tubing in place? Looks great!
 
Amazing build, thanks for sharing. What are the small lights above the kick vents?

they're swivel recovery lights, and will rotate 360 degrees vert, horiz, and 45....they come with spots, but i usually change to floods. I've used them on every cruiser i've owned and always place them in the same spot. Kinda nice to use when changing a flat, or any breakdown. Little pricy but very cheap when you need them.

got my bumper and some misc parts back from the powdercoater today, nice late night settin up the front end with lights and winch. Thanks to my best friend Bill, for the kick ass US Army Vietnam era recovery shackles.......oh, anyone thinking of upgrading their lighting system, Round Eyes Bulbs and Hellas battery wiring kit is a must have. Extremely bright and clear and for driving lights, the Liteforce line of light are excellent quality and are very very bright
