Aesthetically speaking, I like the Stubby.

But, I am a girl and have not gotten into hard core off-roading, just a little baby trail stuff. Still chicken, as I have not had a fellow Jeeper to go along for "WHEN" I screw up (not IF--I am not that overly confident) .

If you want any protection stay away from anything smittybilt.
Chinese Junk, your jeep deserves better.

I have seen 2 others of these same bumpers do the same exact thing as this one, except on the passenger side.
If you are going to wheel your Jeep look at a American made 3/16 steel bumper.

I like the stubby bumper in your first set of photos. I like the stubby aluminum bumper made by Savvy even more, I have one myself on my TJ. Made from uber-strong T-6 6061 auminum, it's a superb high-quality bumper that will hold up to whatever you can throw at it. If you don't like its aluminum color, which I personally do, you can always rattle-can paint or powder coat it satin black.

I wouldn't touch any of the Chinese junk from Smittybilt. :)
