Support American Made products.
LoD bumpers are pretty nice. The Smitty is nice too.

From what I understand smitty makes their stuff in the US and China and even the sales rep doesn't know which site they come from.

Definitely going to fill the holes with fogs, get a winch, and get two larger lights for the tabs up top on the bar.

Might have to think about two batteries somewhere along the line as well. For a winch, Im torn in between all the choices.

Not a huge fan of mid/full length bumpers. So my vote is for the stubby
