I've seen a couple threads about them. I think these are the main ones. There's not too much info out there though...maybe they're too new.

I emailed Rugged Ridge inquiring if they were going to offer the different bumper ends like on the steel bumper and their reply was they don't offer any now but would if there was enough interest in them.

I am curious too , they seem light but durability needs some answers.

Isn't the tow hitch mounted directly to the frame and not the bumper?

The hitch is frame mounted. Maybe thats why RR bumpers are the 2 pieces, to leave room for the hitch?
