Front Bumper
Im looking to buy a front bumper... I think I'm going to get the ACE sliders and I plan to do fender cuts so looking for a stubby bumper... Id like to spend around 500. I like the front loop or a stinger. Just wondering what everyone recommends

I just installed the XHD with winch. It's a really popular bumper, but it's modular so you can customize it. I put on stubby end caps and a hoop. Had to weld light mounts on the hoop though.

If I'm not mistaken, RR has some light brackets now available for the XHD hoop. Maybe someone can chime in to verify.

It's a little above your price range, but it's pretty freakin nice. You can order it bare metal and save some money, then use rustoleum bed liner to paint it.
Of note: Whatever you get, if it's bare and you paint it don't use duplicolor bed liner. I sprayed on the bare metal and primed metal. Didn't work at all. I used rustoleum - which a friend told me get in first place - and it went on smooth and dried fast.

I love my MORE front stubby bumper. When I was looking for a front bumper, I had several important criteria:
Stubby length
Recessed winch plate
Factory fogs integrated
Recovery points
Streamlined form, ie doesn't protrude too far to the front, and maintains high clearance.
Good looking bull bar
The MORE bumper was the best option in my opinion. It's a little pricey, but it was worth it to me. I bought my rear bumper from them as well, and I've been extremely happy with both.
