Default Aries Front and Rear Bumper

I'm looking to upgrade my bumbers on my 09 JK Rubicon and found these on ebay. Of all the ones I've looked, at I like these the most. Does anyone have any input??

Those are Wild Boar bumpers I believe. I don't know. At first glance I like them but then I look at them and they just seem very "busy" and overstated. Just my 2 cents though. It's your Jeep.

if you're really looking for honest input, all i gotta say is to each their own. for me personally, i think it looks hideous and offers next to nothing in terms of functional improvements. but again, that's just my opinion.

I'm pretty skeptical of threads like this. A direct link to an item for sale on eBay from a member with all of 2 posts. I'm surprised wayoflife hasn't closed/deleted this thread. Smells like spam to me.

By the way, that bumper is a bit much. Too many things going on there.

Man, I must have hit a nerve. The thing is my jeep NEVER leaves the road, so I don't think I need a super effective bumper/winch mounting plate like set up. I just like the look! Here's a photo, I assure you this isn't spam!!Click image for larger version

I don't really like the look myself, but if you like the look then get them. It is your jeep and you're the one that has to like it and drive it.

I can't say I care for those myself. Too busy for me. But as most will tell you, your rig, your choice.

I kind of like the look of them. Not looking too functional BUT if you aren't going to do any hard wheeling, it's good. If you get it, send pics once you install!!!
