Default VDP Stubby End Caps for front bumper

Anybody try these? Know anyone who has? Seen any installed? If so how do they look? Good? Cheap? They shorten your front bumper by 17.5".

I ran these for awhile. Easy to do, and looked good.

This picture is with bushwacker flat flares, 2.5" lift, and stock wheels. You can see an unaltered bumper on the white Jeep for comparison.

I wanted the VDMs but couldn't justify the price. I believe when I looked they were around 70 bucks. I went with the RC kind instead and saved about half. I think they look really good and it was super easy to do.

Great number bar! What brand is that. Your front is exactly how I want mine.
