Default New bumper simple bolt on?

was curious, anyone see or hear of a simple hoop style bolt on Bumper to a stock OEM 2007 bumper that maybe on its way? I think I have given up the thought of spending $$$$$$$ on a new full complete bumper as I would not take advantage of the full product meaning I dont do any 4x4 and have no plans on adding a winch etc...

So hoping someone releases a simple bolt on style set up, kind of like this

Not quite this fugly, a bit smaller maybe sitting below head lights instead of wrapping all the way around etc...with maybe some light mounting tabs on top inside rail to mount lights inside the hoop upside down like. I know the stock JK bumper is clean with no current bolts as in earlier model jeeps but sure with the right bolts, self tapping like screws or what ever this could be mounted OK, by no means to house a winchetc but to supply an aftermarket look and possibly some additinal lighting mount options?

A simple bolt on hoop for the factory front bumper? Hmmm, no and I doubt we'll be seeing any in the future. Unlike the TJ, the JK front bumper bolts up to the front of the frame rails. This is not to say that it can't be done, just at the very least, it won't be as "simple" of a mod.

You could always do something like this:

just to change the 'look' of the front end and it gives you some light mounting options.
