A and b are the same thing just different hoop style? I'd vote 3 hoop.

All pro apex is a good option too.

Option D is the worst imo, nothing against fab fours but those new bumpers seem more for show than anything else if you compare the thickness of steel they use to build those vs their traditional bumper offerings. and note too cheap either considering they don't offer as much viable protection

Custom 3 link, 40's etc..

I vote E. The customer service you get with Pelfrey (and how well it is made compared to the others) is well worth the bit extra $$$. Plus it just looks the best

It definitely has a good look, my issue with it was that for the price is rather have the look AND strength of the other offerings out there. But I'm basically a mall crawler so it wouldn't matter anyway lol.

Get whatever one you think looks the best. Id imagine all of those options are built decently. I personally like my Pelfrey one though.

Ya I'm really leaning toward the Fab Fours, just because it looks really aggressive
