Northridge is selling that brand new for $1k, but unfinished. If you have a nice powder coating job on it, I'd think ~$900 would be fair; however, everyone's opinion gonna be different. Throw it out there for a little under $1k highlighting that it's finished, and see if you get any nibbles. Will mainly just depend on your local market as shipping elsewhere would probably run an additional $125 - $150 for someone.

The Smittybilt XRC Gen2 sits low and at least looks good. I've had the SRC for 2 winters now and it is holding up pretty well to Canadian winter salt/gravel. I've hit and dragged it on rocks and it just needed some touch up paint. Their MOD bumper is a little smaller but still sits recessed and lets you put a stinger on.

Both are inexpensive and could be purchased with the proceeds of selling your current bumper.
