I have it . Look in my profile for pics. I like it, looks great. The hoop stick out kinda far from the car in my opinion. It also does not have a spot to mount the licence plate. But it is good and sturdy and fairly cheap too. It has lots of holes for mounting lights on it as well. I think it is a great bumper.

I have started leaning towards the Body Armor quad hoop, for deer protection!

I'm pretty sure you were talking about the front, but incase you are talking about both, I have the rear with the tire carrier. I think it looks fantastic and has no fitment issues or fuctioning issues. No unusual sounds and no rattle. I will say that it is heavier than I expected, but you can look at that as it will handle impact better. Price is better than most bumper/tire carrier options as well.

I have both... They were both an easy install and I really like them.. I also have the skid and side rails. If I did it again, I would skip the skid and make my own. The body armor one is crazy heavy....
