tube bumper

Anybody beside LCNW working on a tube-style bumper? ARB and others only detract from the looks of the truck (though they are likely a big ego booster for the owners).

Truthfully, I was nothing before my ARB bumper. Once it went on, my ego increased to levels never before seen. I was able to quit therapy, Zoloft, and I can finally look in the mirror again.

Thank you ARB. Thank you.

Re: tube bumper

Yes, before the ARB I was a nerdy introvert; now I'm a confident, self-assured extrovert with new friends at every turn. Thank you ARB for changing my life. I wheel with aplomb now.

Jim,

I'll see you at the ARB support group later this week.

My name is Stnmikita, and I'm an ARBaholic.

It's nice to see I'm not alone out there; but with my new found confidence I was prepared to go it alone.

I was running low on ego boost...thanks for the info!!!





edadis, nothing official yet. I bet people will be making their own tube bumpers before others start doing it

Re: tube bumper

Great to see that you guys have a sense of humor...probably the result of ARB also.

You'll excuse me for finding that just a tad hard to believe; what with hundreds, nay thousands of readers here panting breathlessly with your every move (not that there's anything wrong with that).

Email Jason Demello and express your interest. I know he was planning on it, but I don't know how much interest he saw in here.
