Default Mopar Off Road Bumper Pix?

Hey Folks!

Does anyone have pix of these bumpers on their Jeep? I have seen one in person and a few pix online (including a nice installation write up-) but would like a better look at em before I spring for the loot.

I work at the dealership, so I got it for like $450-$475 something like that.

A hole saw. Used Duramix to mount(glue) basically a male PVC pipe connector to the bumper . The male is connected to a female coupler that has the foglight sandwiched in between. i was trying to avoid welding because of paint matching and I didn't want to have to repaint a brand new bumper. It seems to be working well so far.

Wow, good call on that. That's one of the reasons I was looking at the Shrockworks middy, because they allowed for the fog lights in the bumper plus mounting tabs on top. This give me another idea. Too bad it doesn't have a better skid plate with it.

The only thing I can say to that is - that's some MacGyver shit you did there, and it looks fantastic. I salute you!
