Default New Bumper Suggestions!!

Hey, guys. Im new to the forum world. Thought Id sign up to join the jeep world officially haha. Just looking for suggestions for a front bumper. Looking for something somewhat lite but strong. The Warn Elite caught my eye but I don't really know anything about it. Pictures would be great so I can get an idea of what looks good too, lets be honest we all want it to look good too haha. Thanks guys

Welcome to the forum. Here is my Warn rock crawler stubby bumper, with factory fog lights and a warn vr8000 winch w/synthetic rope. The bumper is really strong and weighs about 60lbs. I purchased it from 4wd.com for $500 free shipping

Our shorty bumper with our optional light bar.



Shorty bumper with Warn Powerplant



New bumper, with optional light bar, coming 2013, hopefully near the beginning of the year.

O man sweet, I like the grill protection. Did you have any droop from the weight?
