Default Pure Jeep Front stubby bumper

Was thinking about getting this bumper and was wondering how much heavier it is than the stock bumper? Pure Jeep said that shipping weight is 65 lbs. Does anybody that owns this bumper had to install spacers or anything to compensate or is it light enough? How much does the stocker weigh?

You should be ok. I have a shrockworks mid width and it did not really bring the front end down and it's well over 100 lbs.

Default PJ Logo

I have nothing against the PJ logo, but was wondering if the decal can me simply peeled off or is it painted on?
