Road tripped to PA again to pick up a scratch and dent AEV Front Bumper. $380 vs $1200 makes it a worthy road trip. It wasn't very scratched or dented. Just some chipped powdercoat on the corners, easily fixed with some low gloss black duplicolor, and a scuff or two on the bottom that I will surely add to the first couple trips out.

Only have a crappy cell phone pic for now. I will take some better ones as soon as I get a chance.

Very Nice. I agree, it was worth a road trip.

I liked your old one, but this one looks pretty sweet as well. 380 bucks sounds like a steal 8)

Thanks for the compliments, guys. I have always thought it looked the best out of them all. No one else is doing anything with stamped steel to keep just a little bit of curviness like AEV is. Just had to wait for a good deal because I didn't want to swallow the high price tag.
