Just did this about a week ago now, used a metal grinding disk and just measured 2 inches from the front and taped it off ontop and the bottom, very easy took me about 10 mins just to cut through it but after i drilled a 9/16 hole on the metal bracket that holds the front bumper onto the jeep (because you cut off the stock bumper mounts) then used 3/8s bolts, washer, nuts and painted her black! I think it gives it a nice look aside from the wings practically hanging over my tires. Tell me what ya guys think of this!?

i think you did a damn good job ! looks great

 

Looks great - i am either doing this or getting the poison spider mid stinger - nice looking jeep!

 

Looks great. I'm a big fan of the stubby look, whether it be the stock bumper or aftermarket. Well done!

 

thanks guys, my buddy one day said he'd seen a jk and it had a stubby stock bumper, looked up online and sure enough theres posts and pictures about it, so had everything i needed then bam done. Now time for my lift/tires/gears

 

I'm gonna do the same thing looks great, can I see a shot from the back of the mods

 

Could you post so close up pics of the endcaps and whT did u use for them

 

I used a kit from Rough Country for mine, but end result is a "stock" stubby.

 

It definitely looks a lot better cut.

 

Better......
