Default AEV front bumper (MOAB)

So, I have a MOAB jku...they come with AEV bumpers. I'm looking to order a light bar for the front. Been looking at the Mopar (Rugged Ridge)...it says that it mounts to the frame & goes around the stock jk bumper. Is this the same case for the aev? If not, any suggestions on a light bar (can mount to bunper or frame)!?

If your talking about the Bull bar? I got mine from Quadratec but you'll need to drill out your bumper to bolt it on. I have the MW3 and it came with same AEV bumper. It's really strong and pretty decent price !

thanks ! the bull bar took all of 20 minutes to install....really easy just measure to make sure you are centered and drill it out. I picked up the bolts at lowes. The bull bar is super sturdy and a good price from Quadratec (Search Results - Quadratec) modular bump hoop #11540.14.....$60.00.
I am running a Talon Superwinch tucked into the AEV bumper with the steel cable.
