Well I don't HATE it, but there are lots better looking bumpers out there. The winch guard is needlessly large and sort of ugly when it comes down to it.

It was super easy to install. Two of the excisting bumper holes had to be redrilled larger and two small holes have to be drilled into the crossmember to hold the bottom of the skidplate. Thats it, after doing it once it would only take like 45 min to do another one. Just need a winch plate and some lights.
Looks great. Now you can get this one for the rear:

Please post some pictures, I ordered mine and have Xenon narrows also to go on and would like to see that all together, i have a xrc8 smittybuilt winch going on so it will not look too big like the warn monster that is always shown on there but I have no idea how the winchplate will fo on. so any pictures of the install of the winchplate will help. thanks from Iraq, I can't wait to get home to TX and put my JK together (my wife will be happy to get all the boxes out of the house).

I choose door three... I don't like, but I don't hate it either. The prices seems fair.
