Bumper installation

A real Baja / Streaker needs a set of tubular bumpers! So, I started to install the rear bumper. After a few seconds it became obvious that there is a problem:...
 
The bump for the rear balancer was in the way, so it had to go: Removing the underseal to reveal the raw metal was the first step.

snip snip and gone.

A piece of sheet metal, a little welding and some seam sealer later the bump was history!

Now, the bumper could be mounted:
I think the exhaust pipe is a little too long?!

Tomorrow I will show the front bumper installation!
