    I like the plate bumpers, just ordered an ARB on Saturday. IMO they look better and def protect better, which was my goal with an after market bumper. The ARB can take a deer hit at pretty good speed without damage. Also fender benders are no longer an issue. Just my .02 since no one wants to reply to your thread...
