Any drawbacks to doing this or anyone have any ideas of possible problems i could run in to.

Anyone who has done this, show me what you got!
well where would you get the correct size/length/bend piping from?

Where would you get the plethora of brackets needed to hold everything together?

By the time you manage to get all of that made/found/cut it would have been cheaper and taken less time to buy a kit.

Now, if you can find a shop to do everything for you completely custom and it comes out cheaper then go for it. But even though you may run into some issues or have it cost almost the same.

Actually the only way this might be feasable is if you are a fabricator yourself and had the time/tools/equipment to do it.
