The winch Bumper looks good and is reasonably priced. Too bad they didn't put a pic of the bumper with the bedliner coating.

It looks nice, but its just another bumper set that doesnt use the factory fogs with a winch mount. UGH, why arent there more bumpers that re-use factory fogs while also giving the ablity to mount a winch...

This is exactly what I want. Not too big, not too little, shackle mounts and cut outs for the fogs.

For less money you could get a LoD winch bumper with fog lights.

I used to think that I wanted the factory fogs and a winch too. You may be like me, using the fogs all the time to make up for the sub-par lighting.
I upgraded to CIBIE lamps and now only use the fogs in inclement weather, like I'm supposed too

The factory fogs aren't really that good, aftermarket choices are much better.
I've decided to upgrade the fogs when I get a bumper, I'd rather see better than look good.

We also seem to have a cracking issue, there is a good thread on this here, one of mine is cracked with no impact mark. I'd rather replace a lense than put out 170.00+ for a fog that doesn't work all that good anyway.
