I have been searching for days on end for a front bumper for my ava. It is an 02 cladded  with  Z71 package if that matters. Please any help would be nice as this is one of the few things i have left to find b4 my build starts

maybe I was unclear I do apolagize
I am looking to see who carries aftermarket front bumpers for my ava. I would prefer a tubular design but at his point any suggestions would be nice


not sure why it was moved
 
Road Armor is one. 
Don't think I have seen a tube design for the AV before.  You might get one fabricated up yourself.

Your post had been moved PRECISELY because you were completely unclear :)
 
Please keep us informed of what you find out.  I wouldn't mind having one, but it would be a couple of years saving up to get one.
 
If you want some more detail on mine, take a look at this link from when I was working on it:

Sorry, I can never pass up an opportunity to show off my Avalanche  :D
 
Seems like the 02's are a dying breed. Well I was echo the same question after I did a lot of research. All the cool custom bumper sites that have been talked about in the past (MonsterBumpers, Stealth Bumpers, Iron Bull...) are either out of business, no longer offer bumpers for 2002 models, or are crazy priced ($2500+).  I was about to give up when I was reading about a guy who had a custom bumper fabricated for him by a buddy.
I started searching and eventually found Billy of Brute Force Fabrication (http://bruteforcefab.com/). This is a one guy shop, but he's a hell of a fabricator. Although his site showcases Toyotas, he's done Jeeps, Nissan Pathfinders. and now he's eager to do his first Avalanche.

I had a disagreement with a camouflaged fire hydrant in a parking lot and it ripped the front cladding off and bent the metal bumper itself. My insurance company paid me well and I decided to see if I could get a custom bumper for the money I got.

By the indicator of the work he has already done (look at his web site) I'm sure I will be quite satisfied. His price point is about $1000 less than the discontinued bumpers I saw advertised on other websites.

Work starts October 2012...

If interested, I will try to post pics as I get them.
