I'm thinking about this one, myself: His ebay page

$145 + $38 if you want d-ring mounts + $50 to ship = One hell of a nice custom bumper for under $250.

Dirtworx makes some nice bumpers. He is local here in Corona,Ca. I'm ordering mine up in the next few weeks. I'm getting front and rear package. Call him up. His name is Robert. He will custom make it for you any way you want.

Sweet! I love the rear bumper with the built on high lift jack mount. The only thing I would want on the front bumper would be two screw holes to mount the front licence plate.

my new front bumper did not come with screw holes for the front plate, all you have to do is drill two small pilot holes and use sell tapping screws, works great.

Check out Zach's work at AtoZ Fabrication. I bought a stubby bumper from him that had an integrated winch mounting plate, shackle tabs, and a stinger and it turned out to be a great decision. The quality of his work and the overall design is superb. Click on AtoZ Fabrication for more details.

You can kinda-sorta see it in this pic, I don't really have a better pic with me here at work...



If you talk with Zach, please tell him I sent you as he has done a lot of favors for me over the years.
