Glad I could help.
I think the TJ bumper on the JK makes it look more like a Jeep than the
factory JK POS bumper.

Nice pics too

I'm now looking at making a front bumper out of 2 x 6 c-chanel similar to the
"Sarge" J8 jk. With the help from some guys in the local jeep club
we'd box in the ends and add the factory fogs. Just seems like that
would be substantially stronger than the TJ and way better than
the JK.

Looks good! The real question is, has anyone tried to use an aftermarket TJ bumper and mod it for use on a JK?
