    also, you can get a relentless fab front and all-pro rear for the price of that front bumper.

    Should be called Peckerhead bumpers

    I didn't think it was possible to decrease your clearance by installing an aftermarket front bumper , now I know better

    Too many to list now.
    haha I think he's got a consensus on the opinions. I looked at it and was like "oh theres no way the guys are going to like this". I suppose it depends on your preference but if you are planning on doing any off roaring with it I think I'd agree that it'll probably make your approach angles and clearance worse, it may remain the same but then you have to look at what you are gaining; and if that's a bumper that you really like then hey, you found it! But I don't think you'll find a lot of other people with that opinion. At least not here.

    I agree with eveyone else. I thought the ARB bumper was ugly, but damn! it doesnt hold a candle to that.

    No one has mentioned Brute Force Fab yet, So I will. I got both front and rear bumpers shipped for less then the price of just that front one. Sorry for the poor picture, but its all I have right now. Anyway here is a slightly customized Brute Force front bumper:

    That front bumper is a no-mod bumper. It actually fits over your existing stock bumper.

    WOW. Workman would totally pay $1500 for that sweet bumper. Sounds like a good deal on an excellent bumper!:rolleyes: Workman has lots of extra money and He wants to buy a Hammerhead bumper now too!:cool:
