Rustys did have the ARBs on sale not sure if they still do or not now. the TJMs they had are for 05 and up I think, may check with them

I had mine shipped to me for $980. And that's a pretty good price considering what you get.

There is also the option of building a custom one.

Is Rock Lizard ever going to get the front bumper done? I was on a list a couple of years ago to order one but I haven't even gotten an email reply the last couple of times I asked about it.

its not too hard, its really easy to start with some cardboard and make a mock up

Do you know what you want it to look like? If so, then you are half way there. Just do like jsc said and take the bumper off, get some cardboard and cut and shape it to fit how you want and then either cut and shape the steel yourself or have someone else do it. Not too hard and everyone has to start somewhere right? Or you could take the easier route like I did and modify an existing bumper you like to fit your jeep. I do wish mine had a slightly more finished look but for less than half the price of the ARB and other aftermarket bumpers out there I love it and it is like no one else's. Just things to consider.

that or if you take a welding class you can make one incredibly cheap, I have spent about $50 on my bumper and its all 1/4" and that was including the Grade 8 bolts, I just had to buy some shackles.

the trailready was 1200 and change after shipping. but as i found out the hard way they were only made for the 2002-2004 front end, i had to do some cutting and modifying to make mine fit.
