Here's what I did on my Fiber Stream. I replaced the original bumper with custom brakets that fit within the tube frame, and then attached two sections of 4" PVC pipe. The bottom one is PVC weeping tile with 3/4" holes in the bottom every foot (for draining), while the top is solid PVC. Have a screw in plug on one end, and a blank cover on the other. Screw in plugs are on opposite sides. Slinky goes in the bottom, tarp poles in the top one.

Floyd, did you use kiltz prior to painting it black or use plastic spray paint?
My bumper is made of steel, I welded it to the original bumper, then I welded unistrut across the back and made bumper guards from the feet of an old weight bench. I then added RV bumper plugs to the ends and topped it off with a black rubber runner.

I put mine under the back end of our 16 and attached it to the frame. The end comes out by the gray water drain. I have the bike hitch and does not interfear with it.
