I saw a side shot with this bumper and that's the first thing I thought. It reminded me of my 8' farmers porch from the side angles. It's just thin layout making it look like it sticks out more. Hit a few things and bend it in and I'm sure it would look right. I like the look of their Stubby and it's in my final 3 list because of price, has winch guard and will shortly have fac fog light adaptability. I'm just trying to figure out Mass law and if a stubby is allowed. I've got 2 yes votes and 1 maybe.

I look for the picture of the side shot and see if I can add to the post.

Thanx
It looks decent from the front, but I was a little worried about how far it sticks out. I saw someone else compare it to a cattle catcher on a train.
may have to do the RRC one.

Not sure about the bump for such an old thread............. unless you're looking for photos. I've posted plenty. Here's another.

Just know that if you are installing a winch, the factory fogs have to come out. It wasn't a deal breaker for me but you can't do both unless you mount the winch above the bumper instead of in it like I did. I just added lights mounted to the bumper until I find some I really like.

This is the Olympic "Diamondback" --haven't ever seen any other Jeep with one! Very similar to the boa, without the hoops, and quite a bit cheaper The way the winch sits down behind the front plate seems well protected, but there's not much for the control box or grille (they do make an add-on hoop for it)
Anyway, thought you might want a comparison
