Has anyone made their own corner guards? I can get diamond plate pretty inexpensive, compared to the cost of buying through a 4x4 shop. I have a brake for doing right angle bends but not the radius. Do you know what the radius is for a CJ5 ? I wondered if I could make a male and female mold and bend it on a hydraulic press?
