Default Bumpers n Winches?

I am currently looking for a front bumper and winch to put on my jeep, any suggestions?
I was thinking maybe an LOD Jeep Jk Wrangler Signature Series Mid-Width Front Bumper.
and then Putting a SmittyBilt XRC10 Winch.
Help Please and thanks.

I personally went with the Offroad Evo 1/4 pounder and Smittybilt XRC 10 combo and love it.

I have the Benchmark Elite front bumper and a Warn 9.5it winch and love the way they both installed and look. Fact is, this is so much a matter of what you like and your own application that no one can tell you what to install. Our JK's are really an extension of our personalities. Good luck with whatever you choose.
