That rear bumper is way too amazing. I don't even mind the gap! I like that the swing out carrier hinges are ON TOP of the bumper, instead of right on the back. If someone rear-ends a shrocks tire carrier right on the hinge, you might be screwed.

I wonder what this draken bumper runs for!

I wouldn't get too excited about it yet, Mike took it off for additional work. I think over on TNX the promise was under a grand - there's only one in existence right now so I would say to contact Draken and see if they would build another.

I sent an email for a price quote. Def under a grand.

Mtdewmike, what kind of tweaking?

The side wings were rubbing on the sides and bumping up under the rear quarter panels during flex.

The tire carrier could be redone, too.

Mike is no longer alone. A Draken bumper has been shipped to some guy in Georgia:

Wow! Good for Roby! Even though it's his second bumper for the Xterra, I'm gad he's gotten more business!

Looking forward to seeing the bumper installed.

Looks like he's made some changes since mine, closer to what the original should have been.

Also looks like he's included a spot for a front receiver hitch, just under the winch.

I've only heard about it via Facebook (XTERRA Off Road page). There seems to be a thread about it somewhere on the interweb, maybe he's a ClubX guy.

Apparently this is bumper #3! Someone over on TNX pulled up some pics of bumper #2:
