They are plate style bumpers, not pipe, powder coated and each one is custom built for you. So you can get what you want, winch, no-winch, recessed light cutouts etc. And they will powder coat them in your color.
They have a wed site.

I have a Ranch Hand and like it. Most brands that I've seen are about the same. I had a dealer spray my front and rear bumper replacement with the same stuff they use on truck beds. It looks great, cleans easily, and won't chip (no rust).
Seriously, I'm jealous. Can't think of a better place to be. Gig 'em!

Life is great in Aggieland! Left in '87 and lived in Houston and Austin for almost 15 years. Wasn't even looking for a job and was offered a job running a real estate company here in College Station. Wife loves it (she grew up here), kids love it, and I get to watch plenty of football, baseball, and basketball.
When you get your replacement bumper have them spray it with the stuff they use on truck beds. It looks great and is maintenance free. I didn't do it with my bumper when it was new and they had to sandblast it to get the rust off.

I found a guy in Wichita Falls that can get me the Ranch Hand for around 800 bucks. Does that sound like a reasonable price? I forget what he said for installation (around $100). That is for the legend series. A bit less for the Summit series. Also, anyone that has a Ranch Hand recommend one series vs the other. I know the Legend is about 40lbs heavier.
