I don't think you would want to connect it to the radiator supports...could cause some later maintainence nightmares. At the most you might at 10-20 pounds to the bumper by welding the "facia" to the bumper.

And I remember reading up and seeing pic's on Grampa Bob, he was one of the early VX off-road fanatic's and put his VX through the off road test often..

Yep, like Dub said, Grandpa Bobs...however it has been sold and I don't know who owns it now. The "cladding cage" is just a front bumper....the very first VX front bumper. Sorry Marlin, even if you would have beaten Orion ya still would have been #2!
But I have to say again your newest rendition of your bumper is far better looking than the original
Super VXer
Got the other side done, cut 45s on the bottom rails, still gotta put a 5/8" bolts through the tubes as backup for the welds. I picked up some roll on bedliner to finish it up this weekend. Gotta wire up the new lights and figure out the mount for the new skid plate and I will be done for a while.

The gap around the receiver will not be there for longg. I am getting one of the hitch mount license plate holders for my VX yellow carbon fiber license plate. Have faith....it is finally getting there...
Super VXer
nothing amigo... just saying that i have always wanted to change the front bumper on the vx...
Super VXer
Ahhhh, but the difference is you haven't!!!

It still looks like you almost have enough room to leave the stock bumper on and just have this outside of it. Even if you have to put lots of holes in the stock bumper and even cut part of it up, I still think that will be the easiest way to fill in the gaps between the new hefty bumper and the hood/lights/grill, but it really is coming along nicely, good job
