I'm thinking I want AMBs.
I've been searching the web for a few days and can't seem to find what I think I want. I like the R/A ones (not sure if they are a sponsor or not) but I don't want the winch hole. I want a receiver hole in the center for my 10K removable winch. Reason being I need to be able to move the winch from the front to the back or use it on the Rubicon Jeep. Plus, I don't want to leave the winch on it all the time.
I would also like to keep the top step on the bumper like the OEM if possible.
If you guys have pics or know of bumpers like I'm looking for please post up.
Bumpers serve 2 purposes depending upon which one you chose. Some are there for looks, some are there for usefulness.
I run a Ranch Hand down here in Deer country, where its cheap insurance when, not if you hit a deer. I also have a winch on it and I can remove or add without having to take off the bumper. Its a Warn Powerplant with air compressor. Its big and also mounts on my Rubicon.
Thanks for the photos. Those bumpers look great. I am looking for bumpers like the pics but I want the receiver hitch in the middle so I can use my movable winch. I don't want it locked into the front bumper only.
I just got an American Built Truck Equipment (that's actually the brand) front bumper and love it. It looks very similar to the Ranch Hand, but less expensive (I paid about $975 excluding freight shipping).
It comes standard with a front receiver and a hole for a winch, but the winch plate is optional and the hole is easily covered by a license plate. It's really nice.

If you will just turn you computer around so you can see the bumper from the backside you will see that the Lic plate is mounted to a 2 in receiver hitch:
