    TG is a great alternative to the more expensive bumpers. Check out 4wheelparts.com. @Johnson1

    badland bumpers get my vote, just ordered mine the other day and are priced lower than most.

    Covered in stickers and chrome stick-ons for extra horse torques and foot powers. Icon sticker gets me tons of travel, dozens of milimeters.
    I could never find a tube style I liked so I just started looking for fabricators I could show pictures to and see if I could get my vision across.

    It's the trail gear low profile bumper. I've welded on plates to give the bumper a full look and also a light bar hoop

    I modeled mine after theirs but had some extra tubing lying around so just made it myself.
