Join me while I continue the fabrication of a custom rear bumper for a 1999 Suzuki Grand Vitara. This bumper is made from a combination of rectangle tube and plate for the ultimate in strength and rigidity while keeping things as light and clean as possible.
I thought this would be the final episode in this series but there was just too much to show you so stay tuned for part 4 - that really will be the last one!
In part 3 we do more work with Coroplast, creating plastic mock ups to finish the side portions of the bumper as well as the top plate. Speaking of the top plate, there's a tutorial on cutting checker plate from a mock up and getting the fit just right. I go over bracing the bumper for welding in order to avoid heat warpage and we begin the sanding process.
