The bumper was easy to get on once the stock one was off...but dang, getting the stock one off was a real PITA. I should have watched a video first to see that the 4 bolts that needed to be removed on each side (per the new bumpers instructions) were the 4 bolts on each front stock towhook. I could only see the two bolts on the outside of the towhooks...removed them...and saw two bolts attaching the platic bumper cover to the bumper skeleton and assumed those were the other 2!! After 2 hours of getting frustrated, etc. I finally cut the freakin' thing into 3 sections...saw there were two more "inside" bolts on each tow hook and got them off...
Another 1 hr job that took me way longer than it needed to.
Oh well, live and learn!!

No reception difference.
Literally search "jeep antenna" on amazon. It's the only one I saw.
The factory looks like crap bc it's the only shiny thing on the jeep
Plus some dbag bent mine the other night while it was parked at a restaurant
Good luck
