I love the look of that bumper except for:
1:the receiver hitch in the middle of it
2: the cutouts in the center of the bumper

But the rest of it looks great!

I am thinking the cut outs are probably jack points

The cut outs are for chain hooks and for ease of getting to the receiver pin. We put the receiver up nice and high so it doesn't create a hang up point. We do a double drop down to allow room for the tire while still covering the pinch weld. We try and put clean angles into our bumpers to match or enhance the jeeps lines plus each additional angle adds strength.

Anyone got a pic of an ARB rear bumper with the factory hitch? I've only seen them clear the factory hook.
