I bought the bumper through Eric at Offroad Elements who is a sponsor here. I would recommend them and have had good service on several orders.

I checked the material of the plates and they are plastic. Not sure that will help if you don't like the styling anyways.

They don't have this bumper on their website. How did you find out they have it?

They were just released. Contact Eric for a good deal.

The plates are made from uhmw. Does it require a vacuum pump relocation kit for winch install? Any pictures of the inside before install?

Did not require a vacuum pump relocation. I did remove it and paint it flat black.

Thanks for the plate material info.

You can see the pump in this picture. Unfortunately didn't get any without the winch installed.
