Not round but put in the search box YellowSno.  Blazin made an awesome rear bumper for his plow truck

     You got to give people time to see the thread, sometimes it takes a couple of days.
      I have made all kinds of bumpers in the past, but I was not taking pics then.  Some of the best ones in my opinion were the front or rear ones I made to mount winches and double as air tanks with all the tabs for lights and tubes to run the wires in.
#1: The easiest and most obvious solution to any problem is 99% of the time correct.
#2: There is no such thing as impossible, it just takes longer.

There is a thread somewhere of custom bumpers and people making them that is already grouped and I don't think it is the one Cody listed.
