    OK, so I have a dilemma. Both items are used and priced relatively the same.

    Demello Offroad Single Hoop with a bent mounting bracket that seller says "can be pounded back into place"

    or

    SAW 2.5" Coilovers that need cleaning.

    Well with the bumper you will need upgraded suspension. So I say both. :)

    Yes, I didn't know what leveling kit you used. I'd rock the bumper if you are willing to buy OME Springs. I'd be iffy to buy used suspension parts. Bumpers are harder to mess up. And are normally in good condition even used. Just have to see how bent it is I guess.

    probly a good choice. steel welded to other steel is often tough to "pound into place" i would imagine demello uses some pretty heavy brackets.

    LETS SEE THOSE COILOVERS!!!

    It'll be a few weeks before I get them, and even longer by the time I get my Camburg UCA's...but I'll post pics soon enough.
