Anyone have a review, good or bad on the XRC Front Bumper by Smittybilt?

 

I avoid SMITTY products, but I will say I rearended a parked Honda sedan at +30MPH and put his trunk into the back seat... however I drove away with nothing but a bent Rigid bracket. Not even a scuff on my XRC, best $300 I have spent, though I wouldnt buy one new.

Also, the winch is a mofo to get unbolted, your better off taking the whole bumper off, but that can be a good thing since ball sucking thieves are rampant.

 

I just bought and installed a smittybilt XRC front, rear, and sliders. More than pleased with the quality, fitment, finish. All around happy customer.



You do have to mount the winch before mounting the bumper.

 

Looks tough, very cool!

 

P.s. the next time someone backs into my jeep they will feel it. Unlike the crinkled caved in piece of plastic that was stock.

 

Here's another view.
