Your pic proves my point! Putting the fog brackets on the bottom would result in fail. Is there any way to mount them forward facing to serve as actual fogs?

The fog brackets are designed for quick removal. Four .25" fasteners and a couple of quick connect wires and they are off for rock crawling. They also mount in the rock light position. The bumper is pre-drilled for both locations.

Since I'd have to stop and pull the quick disconnects, changing the fog configuration would be no problem. Maybe I'd do a off-road prep prior to hitting the trail.

Excellent!

Picture of mine speaks for itself:

Im not referring to the gauge of steel....I meant the height of the bumper....does the factory skid/plastic cover fit with this bumper?

Ahhh, It's a minimalist bumper, meaning that it's about saving weight (weighs 27 lbs.) I tried to cut as much out from the design as possible.

Factory skid, being the bash bar? Yes you can keep the bash bar. Plastic cover? I don't recall what it attaches to.

Is the fog light/bracket kit water proof?

I placed an order for this bumper yesterday and I will post pics as soon as i get it installed. As far as the plastic/skid cover from the OE bumper, I'm pretty sure it wouldn't work with this unless you did a little mod to it. The plastic skid has those plastic screw/nutsert things that hold it to the OE bumper. Hopefully I'll have pics posted by mid next week

The kit uses, the factory fogs and wiring. RE water proof, same as factory.

Cool how long are you gonna be running this bumper at this price? Or are you just trying to get rid or your inventory? I plan on ordering one mid March
