Default Mid-width or stubby

Looking at the LOD.....but torn between the stubby or mid width.

The mid-width offers more front end protection, and looks to not stick out as far as the stubby, but I really like the look of the stubby. What to do?!?!

Just purchased my Red Rock Fab Pre-Runner JK Front Bumper w/ skid plate....it's a little wider than a stubby but not quite to the mid-width size....good compromise.
I wish you luck in which ever one you end up going with. I can say that LOD and Shrockworks made the short list but ended up going with Red Rock Fab.

Just went on their site to have a look. I think I like the mid-width better, personally. If you look close, it's really not that much wider than the shorty. The shorty is nice, but if it sticking out bothers you now, it will definitly bother you once you install it. Have you checked out other manufacturers, or are you set on LoD?

I've been looking at other's but I want something that retains my factory fogs, has a cut out for my winch (don't like the winch sitting on top of the bumper), and it has to be rugged but still flow with the Jeep. Decisions, decisions.
