    the warden is very interested in the SSO bumper. would like to see the different options that will be available.

    shackles, with and without hoop, light bar, winch, color matched paint?

    Yup, I really like it, just don't know about the hoop.

    I like how the bumper structure was kept intact.

    Was there any cutting done at all, or is the lip just held by screws and comes off without cutting?

    So, it looks legit, but I see one possibly huge issue.... How to you gain access to winch to handle any binding/tangles?

    Love the SSO bumper! I also like that I can still use my stealth mounted led light bar. Probably wouldn't work with a winch though.

    Popping the hood and taking the grill off if need be. This grill is super easy to remove and you'd have full access to the winch.

    It was stated earlier in the thread that cutting is required.

    I think if someone could come up with a solution that only required slight cutting in areas covered by the fat lip so it was fully reversible aesthetically, that would be a hot seller. I don't know if it is possible given the internal structure of the bumper and it certainly wouldn't work as a winch mount. At that point it would just be a skid plate with tug points.

    The SSO bumper is certainly the best compromise I've seen so far. I like how it toughens the look but it's not over the top. The 3rd gen front end is a challenge for the aftermarket. Virtually every 3rd gen bumper design I've seen requires cutting the stock bumper cover.

    I wonder if jacking holes will be an option? It seems like there is space. Otherwise, I wonder if you can jack using a shackle in one of the tow mounts? I've never done that, but it "sounds" like it should work.

    Is the trim piece that's around the cut in the stock bumper going to be included with purchase?
