Poll - Front and Rear Bumpers should they match?
Ok I am waiting on my Shrockworks bumper to be made (in America) and now thinking about rear bumpers. I am considering a different make for the rear maybe Ace Pro or other. This made me wonder how may Jeepers care if the front bumper and rear are made by the same company.
This would not have even occurred to me if all the bumpers and sliders or armor did not have the brand cut into them.

Until these companies put you on the payroll... Just cover up up their logos permanently (weld?).
As for the looks of different bumpers... Only you can decide if they go together well.

Yeah... Being the poster child for advertisement wasn't what I wanted to do either... but such is life with these new mega logos that are being forced upon us.

Matching finishes are more important than actual matching brands. That being said.....I have matching front and rear bumpers simply because I like the style of the bumper.

Style should be consistent. That includes previously mentioned finishes. It doesn't matter if different brands are used, but consistency is usually better if they are same.
For those who say it doesn't matter: Why not use two different wheel styles on left and right--you can't see both at same time? But everyone wants a nice looking rig, regardless of the "function over appearance" suggestions.

I run an AEV front, PSC rear, and Rubicon rock rails, all with textured finish. I haven't had another Jeep owner try to shoot me yet...

No need to match unless your OCD about it. For the longest time prior to committing to buy my front and rear bumper I had very hard time convincing myself that there's no need to have matching branded bumpers. I even found that my top three choices of manufacturers didn't even make a front and rear that both appealed to me. Way back I always knew I wanted the PSC brawler lite front bumper but the rear PSC bumpers, well, I just didn't like them. I ended up with an ACE pro series rear and I find that both bumpers complement each other quite well.
