Default Smittybilt XRC Gen II Front Bumper

So, after many agonizing weeks of combing through pictures and threads for a bumper, I have decided on one. The unfortunate thing is, I can't find one!

I'm looking for a Smittybilt XRC Gen II bumper. The best I can tell, they have yet to be released but there seems to be several of them out there.

Anyone have a line on one and could hook a brother up? I have cash money and ready to buy!

If there is a vendor out there that can get one, I'll buy the front and rear bumpers along with an X2O Comp 10K winch.

So glad I waited for the Gen 2 version. I am very happy with it and will post some pics once it is installed.

I have been waiting for this bumper for a long time. No offense if you like them but I am not a fan of the skid plates they decided to add to it. How easy are they removed and how would it look without them? I know that's a lot to ask and don't expect you to tear your brand new bumper apart but just kinda depressed they decided to add those.

I understand, I wasn't expecting the skid plates either but my first impression is that I liked them.

Where did you get your bumper from? I am about to pull the trigger on this. Looks pretty sweet with those glide plates. I approve.

What are the removable panels made of? What's the point of them? I'm just really interested in this bumper or the gen 1
