Glad you guys like them. Install is pretty straightforward, but if anyone has any questions just send me an email or pm.

Pics or it didnt happen. lol
Im thinking about using rattle can. Rustoleum makes a nice rust inhibitor. and then use a flat black on top of that.

Looks nice , I got the no receiver version so its good to see that on the jeep. Now I gotta get off my butt and get mine painted so I can put it on, I have to admit Im sorta hesitant to take off the bumper....but its gotta be done

Rattle can on mine. Using 2 industrial sized cans of flat black and one of yellow for the rings

So now that I have mine on... does anybody need a tow hook? PM me

Helm man ! Thoughts on front bumper light / stinger bar?

I'd love to do bumpers but do love the lights and stinger bar, think you said shipping would be a monster pain

At The Helm · **Posted:** Sun Apr 21, 2013 1:01 pm

Actually working on a prerunner style single hoop.
Shipping isn't really a pain just expensive.

isomswim · **Posted:** Sun Apr 21, 2013 2:34 pm

I thought about this also maybe adding a universal weld on hoop small or big

This one is probably too big but something similar would be cool

How do you guys think a pair of something like Rigid D2 LEDs would look like mounted on one of these? Would it be too low? Been trying to figure out the best way to put some lights on mine and this was something I thought of, but wasnt sure how it would end up looking like.

Are you handy with a hole saw or angle grinder? Since you didn't get the receiver you're fine cutting up the tube a little to recess some lights so they don't stick out.

This is exactly what I'm doing. I ordered a 12" dual row light bar from jasper offroad that is out for delivery as we speak. I'm going to use the stock mounting arms for it and drill and tap the recovery system to mount it. I'll post pics once it's installed. Hopefully I'll get to it this weekend but my second passion of brewing beer might take up some Jeep modification time...

heh, no..there is no way I would think about cutting or anything like that...drill a hole, ya...anything beyond that, no way...

I cant wait to see you mount that light bar Huntb and see how it turns out.

If anyone missed out on the first round of these I got one and decided to go with a steel bumper instead. So if someone wants to buy mine let me know.
