    I was leaning torward the All-Pro bumper, but you have to buy there skid plate, it will not work with the stock style... :/Elite's web page says they are not taking any orders at this time, and normal turn around time is 3 months... Not sure im OK with anyone holding that much money for that long.... Is that how long you waited???

    I prefer the plate bumpers over the tube bumpers as well, but I do like the lightweight factor of the tube bumpers. If I had to chose and money wasn't a factor, It'd be Relentless front and rear, but since the g/f already got the Trail Gear front tube bumper for me for Christmas, I guess I'm gonna go with the TG rear bumper, as well. I think it'll look good.

    That's about what the wait is for Relentless, too. Perfection can't be rushed lol

    Yea.. I guess....Maybe I am not very trusting.. I mean $50.. maybe, but to have nearly $1000 in limbo for 3 months makes me a little queasy, 5 months makes me down right sick.. LOLI am sure the wait is worth it once its there, but in the mean time....

    I agree. It's not so much of a trust issue with me, especially with Relentless, Elite, All-Pro or any other company associated with TW…but the wait is what would kill me. That's one reason I'm glad my g/f went with Trail Gear b/c Summit Racing has it and there's one like 15 mins from my house :D

    oh yea, trust me, I know. Plate steel is not cheap to stock and neither are the tools to build them. I am just funny about my money and givien such a long turn around time. However, I would most likely do it if I had the money....

    Plate bumper generally with a winch mount takes away approach angle over tube from my personal experience.. I did like plate as well before I got my tube bumper but I wouldn't change if I could!

    found this and thought this thread was a good place for it.

    Pretty cool video. ARB isn't for everyone but the engineering and quality work behind them is impressive.
