Question A/M front bumper

Has anyone installed one of these after market front bumpers yet?
http://www.fabfours.com/ They are expensive but look close to factory shape.

Get one of ours instead with the Forum GB!

But, the Fab Fours are good, similar to Road Armor & Alien-Patrol...

Get a Ranch Hand Bumper

A have yet to see anthing that is as functional, well built, and as good looking as a Ranch Hand style bumper. http://www.ranchhand.com/frontbumperreplacements.htm

I have a A/M replacment bumper that is not made by Ranch Hand, but looks identical. My suggestion would be to try find a used one and have it re-finished with a bed liner material. Will look good as new and save you some $$.

These guys are local to me and I see them everywhere. Even Law enforcement use them on their SUVs.

Also it all depends on cost and your location, Reunel make a quality product, but be ready to shell out at least 2K...

When we started building our Ranch Style bumpers (The Patriot line) we changed it up a bit so they were not so "offensive", if you have a chance check em out.

Thanks for all the options. I am trying to get my hands on a used plasma cutter to add to my other shop tools. If I do, I am going to try to build my own and ditch the homemade pre-runner bar I currently have.
