I'm looking for a way to mount a fiberglass front bumper on a Demon. I spent some time under the car today with various aluminum pieces but not coming up with a great solution yet. Can any of you guys share how you did it, other then using the factory brackets? Thanks in advance FABO.

Very nice looking car you have. I can't remember his name. But there was a member on here making Aluminum bumper brackets. You might see if you can find him and maybe he will give you some pointers. Unless you just want to make them your self, which I understand. He was selling them for a good price. Would like to add that this is not a for sell post for him. Would like to see more pictures of your car.
 

Thank you for the responses so far. I did see those custom fabed brackets on here before also. Beautiful work and I'll look more into them. I was picturing something more simple / single brack type set up. Thanks for the complement on the car. It's been a 3 year piece together drag car project that's hopefully making it to the track soon. Here's a few more pics. Engine going in a couple weeks.

Wow the car looks great. What engine are you putting in it.
 
340 w/ Hughes Magnum heads. Oregon custom ground solid cam, 4500 stall and 4:88 spool.
 
Those Lingerfelters Brackets sure are nice and he'll be at Carlisle. I know I cant come close to making anything this nice so I'll pick up a set when I'm in Carlisle.

Have several set on the 4 bracket cars we have....fit perfect....
With the fiberglass bumpers I only use one of the two brackets on each side...
And he has light weight aluminum nuts to go with those brackets...lol
