From experience, the SmittyBilt are tough, nice welds and good finish.

The SmittyBilt XRC is modular, the corners can be added. They angle steeply towards the edges, so approach angle in front of the wheel is good.
They offer the corners either with or without foglights.
The corners with foglight holes, INCLUDE foglights, which are much better than the stock ones.

The bull bar has tabs for mounting lights or light bar, and/or small LEDs (facing downwards to shed light on the winch).

If this is the bumper you're referring to, I couldn't be happier with it.

Ive been looking at the Barricade bumper from ExtremeTerrain, the Body Armor Mid-Stubby that's on Quadrate, and glanced at the Smittybuilt SRC which I like a lot but it doesn't have the fog light spots (picky I know). My budget is $500. If you guys could give me any ideas or feedback on these bumpers id appreciate it!

Have you looked at JCR Offroad? I think you would like the Dagger like I have:

I have the barricade front bumper and i love it. looks good and it as fog lights. You have to really stretch the wiring to get it there but it will reach. Had a few little rub marks but my father in law repainted for me.
