Do you have a design? dimensions etc,, some specific model.. I can then check with a shop I know if they can make it. I don't know how much it will cost, but definetly not 4500.

Which car do you have, and why don't you buy it from abroad?

Question would be: "Why do you need a tube bumper?"

A bumper normally serves as a protection for the sensitive parts and lines, which are placed at front. There are radiator, fans, brake and oil pipes; all parts which are crucial for your survival in a desert. Once you hit a dune (and you will), it is like to hit a concrete wall. You can damage your front bumper, but your important parts may stay untouched with a good, solid bumper. Most of the modern plastic bumpers are made to to serve in a soft collisions on the tarmac, but in a desert, they go off very soon.
Bumper made of tubes keeps all the the sensitive parts open and therefore unprotected. It looks cool, but practical sense of usage is very far away. Better is to use the full metallic bumper.

thanks marshal for your feedback but first because you asked me the car is 2wd and after one month its will be transfer to jordan so its not a desert car ! and sir dont be underestimated those bumper they are really good and strong enough for desert and you got a high level of clearance with 1 cm skid plate to cover all important and sensitive parts, they using those bumper for prerunner cars sir and you know what i mean by prerunner, thanks again marshal for your advice and feedback and if you know a shop thats can customize one for me am really really thanks for that ..

Any modifications to the car, not approved by police at originally approved import of any car to any country is not normally allowed. Bumper belongs also to these approved items and it is not allowed to change it. This is worldwide policy accepted by almost all countries in the world. When we are mounting metal bumpers on our off-road cars, it solely serves only for off-roading and at car license renewal we are putting back original bumpers, which is illegal, but still somehow accepted.
If you'll come with a car from any country into the another country, not only in GCC, with strange looking bumper, you can be sure that your car would be rejected.

Do you want to risk such an event?

ya i know mebar auto, and ya they can build a full prerunner car but as you say $$$ .. i want here in sharjah with medium quality because i spend alot for this car and i want to sell it in summer,, sir marshal i agree with you but in jordan thats okay there because i brought a toyota 4runner with front and rear crawler bumper and it was okay for them and the crawler bumper is more aggressive than prerunner bumper lol .. wanna ask you, do you like arb or tjm bumper .. ?
