Montero Sport Bumper Cover

Here is the truck I'm building that I put the 97 Montero Sport Bumper Cover on.

I like that........very much....

Hopefully you'll share the procedures for the assembly.

I really would like to do this to my macro cab.

I'll be damned. I would have never guessed that would fit. It looks really good.

Did you make your own brackets, or reuse parts from your truck or the Sport ?

I used the Montero bumper support and bolted it to the MM core support and the bumper cover fit really well i couldn't believe it myself....It was a pretty easy install with a little fab work.

97 Montero Bumper cover and support
Remove top 2 studs from support then line them up on the bottom rail on core support, Drill holes and install rivnuts I used 8mm then you can bolt the top of bumper support to the core support. Bottom 2 studs cut down and welded 2 brackets to the bottom of the core support and bolted them......Here are some pics20161016_154129.jpg20161016_154114.jpg20161016_154106.jpg20161016_154045.jpg20161004_162952.jpg20161004_162916.jpg20161005_140339.jpg

That's great. Nice pictures too. Do you have any plans for the place where the fender flare used to go?

The Montero Sport is on what's basically a 3rd gen pickup platform. I'm still surprised it fits a 2nd gen so well though.

I'm going to fill in the bolt holes when I decide what color to paint the bumper.

Sorry, I know this is an old thread but I LOVE THIS! I'm wanting to put a 93 bumper cover on my 90 and the only one I could find was something like $400 plus another $75 to ship. Although I have been looking at Toyota bumper conversions and they do look pretty good and I'm sure I could easily get what I need from a JY for the Toyota conversion. I haven't been able to find a JY mighty max in my area although I'm sure I could find a montero

Follow the fender lip line and trim the bumper to match the contour. A bit of plastic filler - the perfect crime

Sorry I know this is an old thread but what do you mean by you "used the Montero bumper support" I'm trying to do this bumper swap and have the bumper but cant seem to find the bumper support
