So my wife was driving the other day (mistake I know) and decided to rearrange my front bumper. Good news is that everyone is okay and it was the other persons fault so Im looking for a replacement... Need some ideas for a mid width bumper with winch plate... Ideas and pics please!?!?

 

I've got a full width but with the angles on the sides it fits almost like a mid width.



Bestop Highrock High Access. Comes pre-drilled with winch plate. Nice and light and durable.

 

About a 18 months ago I did similar damage to my OEM bumper (actually looked the same as in your photo) ... hit a stump while wheeling back in the mountains to retrieve an Elk I shot.

I took it to Dent Medic. They pushed it out from the rear while heating it. Couldn't even tell it had been damaged ... cost was $80.

If you check at the car dealerships, you should find a similar service in your area. They generally visit each dealership every week or so to remove dings from any trades the dealers taken in. You can meet them in the dealership parking area to have the ding taken out.

I've since replaced the bumper with the new Warn Elite 87750 (released at beginning of the year) because I finally installed a winch. The bumper allows you to install the winch down between the rails. Was $645 and Made in the USA.

I say it will depend on what you want. Last weekend I almost lost my jeep to a Milton mud pit. Dropped the right side into a pit instantly covering my 35's and swallowing my 4" lift. I had to be snatched out by a one ton dually and a 2500 pick up. If not for my XRC Smitty front bumper my jeep would still be there. Good luck with the replacement.

They have some nice midwidth bumpers. I just ordered Front Stubby Dagger Pre-Runner Winch Bumper and I am anxiously waiting for it.

 

If you want something simple and also good looking, in my opinion, then check out the Pavement Ends bumper. The price is really great too and they offer a winch plate for it. One great thing about it is that it's not very heavy. I actually really like this bumper and the matching rear bumper. There is no tire carrier on the back bumper but I think one could be added with a little welding. I plan on fabricating a front and rear copy of these myself.

Anyways, here's a thread about them:
