Thanks! Skills maybe, but time is basically nonexistent now that we have twins.

I doubt I'm any better than anyone else with the torch, but I have been MIG welding for near 20 years so it's not like I'm unfamiliar behind a hood.
My first few TIG welds were truly awful though, luckily I had a few tube cutoffs to practice on first.
Bumper is an E46 M3 rear that I split in the middle and widened a little.
I almost put an E63 M6 support on instead, they look really cool but the shape isn't right.
I planned to carbon reinforce the whole thing but now that I have a gas tank covering the suspension I'll probably just throw an original support and rear bumper on.
