Default Fab Fours Bumper - Reviews?

Seeking advice on the Fab Fours front bumper. I am leaning toward going with this one based on looks and the fact that it has the built in lights and wench falls behind it rather than sitting on top.

I am concerned about strength and quality. Also ease of self install.

Opinions?

Great quality and finish. Have had mine on for years. No complaints. Only drawback is the price. Expensive compared to the competition

My local 4Wheel Parts shop says they can get anything from their catalog in 2 days - 1 week. I will be going through them.

Wow!! I was just logging in to ask the same thing. I ordered mine this last weekend. From what I understand its a great bumper that's very well built compared to others....may cost a little more but I don't mind paying for quality.....I also like the fact that you don't see them everywhere...my guy is installing it with a winch for $100. Thought I'd let him do it so I don't have to spend the afternoon messing with it.

One thing I've been worried about is license plate mounting....Texas law says we need it. But, that's right where winch comes out. Any ideas???

They make brackets that go over the winch cover for a plate

Buddy has a used one I could have picked up for a song. However passed on it. Will not accept my aftermarket fogs - Vision X LEDs (doesn't use the stock fogs, and isn't compatible with them).

But then that's me. Had it accepted the fogs, I likely would have picked it up - at least until I was ready to replace it.
