    Nice bumper! Red Green would be proud!
    One tip about cutting steel with an angle grinder: Don't try to cut all the way through in one pass. Lightly score the steel with the first pass, and then make repeated passes cutting a little deeper each time. Your cutoff wheels will last much longer, and that saves money!
