Default Saw this jks bumper today
I was at the store today and saw this guys set up on his JK.. Anyone know who sells those caps? Looks like an inexpensive way to make the stock bumper look a little better

Yep, Rough Country, not the VDP caps. VDP are plastic, RC is steel. I don't know about the VDP caps, but the RC ones are nice, super easy install and fit great.

I have the VDP caps, just put them on a few weeks ago. Super easy install and I think it makes a big difference.

What size tires you have on? They Duratracs?

Yeah I'm going to look into ordering those caps, do they bolt right on after you cut the plastic?
