Im located in muncie, indiana which is an hour north of indy, the only thing i don't have is a tubing bender, so i would have to cut and weld the pipe back together to get the necessary bends you want but will still look just as good

Hmm I forgot about that method. I guess you would grind to make it look like bends instead of steps huh? What would ya charge? Shipping would suck really badly and your a good piece away!

Steps as in cutting and welding in sections to get the bend. I think I will half to just wait till I can afford my own Mig Welder and then I will make me a Bender and go from there. By the sound of it you could have me one made will a couple hundred bucks but Shipping would be another 75-100 or so,or If I came and got it about that much gas too. With having someone make me one would almost by the entry level Hobart Mig welder so I guess I need to just start saving after X-mas. I guess I am SOL till I get my own tools work with.

Oh and I am going to make my front fenders look alot like those on the Xj I want the bumper from.
Heres the fix for my fender cutting. I marked my fronts the way I wanted them. Styled after the aftermarket ones. I used a photo editor to see what they would look like cut and OMG There coming off.
Heres a before and after pic. I done that back real quick just for fun, Im pretty sure I cant take that much off of them but it looks nice.
Fronts will be this way for sure though!
