Nice, I like the slim look it has, well done!  Are you going to create a matching one for the rear as well?

I've been thinking of doing square tube like that - glad to see it's as good as I imagined it.

In my opinion kick and tracks are boxy along with the samy they look better with square tubing unless its a all tubular chassis.

Nice job.  Big contrast in looks between unfinished on the floor, and finished mounted on your rig.

Any photos of your hitch mount, and its tie-ins?  I used 2X4" on my rear bumper, but haven't made my hitch yet, so watching for ideas.
