I've had my textured black RR tube bumpers for a few months now. Love them! Sturdy and old school looking.

I noticed some of you had auxiliary lights mounted on them. I'm assuming you're using the tabs that you also mount the plastic piece too? I'm looking to mount some on mine too.

Anybody have any pics/reports of how these bumpers hold up to offroad abuse compaired to normal style bumpers? Any bending?

Looking for opinions on this, not only offroad abuse, but take for instance we here in ohio deal with alot of deer accidents...its crazy how much damage can be done from a deer, yet with a heavy duty bumper theres usually none, unless they swing around to the side panels

I also "kissed" a tree (not too hard) on the other side twice and I have prints of the tree in the bumper. I don't think they hold up as well since they are mostly hollow. Just my opinion though.

That'd be me with the Cosmos Blue and Renegade stickers. I love the looks of the tube bumpers on the JK. I'll probably go with something like this for mine since I'm going with the retro theme.
