UNEEK BUMPERS - GAUGING INTEREST ON BUMPERS

musclezmarinara · **Posted:** Fri May 03, 2013 7:02 am

Been in communication with the guys over at Uneek 4x4, in regards to getting their KK bumper to the states.

Working on some hefty discount due to shipping is pretty steep, was hoping to gauge some interest here and see if anyone would be interested, please PM or post below.

Thanks Musclez

That looks sweet. Do they have a rear bumper?

Not sure if they released it yet

Hope you get this plan off the ground Musclezmarinara! Always love to see more KK's getting done up. I'm getting one of these bars installed myself pretty soon (I'm in Australia). I think he is now about 1-2 weeks away from having the first production run of them ready to ship out to us hungry customers wooohooo!

Interested? Yes. Would need an idea on price point shipped before I could commit. I am looking at mid July in making a decision for what I will do for something to mount a winch to. My options so far are:
Detours Backbone System
Atthehelm's bumper
Mtnlover's bumpers if he ever gets back on here. Right now this is not much of an option since he disappeared.

Heres the update as of today.

Cheapest way to do it would be to send a 20ft container over, which would be roughly 40 bull bars.
So Id need to sell 40 bars YIKES !

knocking then down from MSRP $1715.00
to $1435.00 ( I believe i could do this shipped)

PROBLEM HERE IS PRICE AND THE FACT THAT I DOUBT I COULD SELL 40.

Do they sell other smaller products for the KK. If they did it would be beneficial to try and throws those in instead of trying to sell 40 bumpers, but thats if they sell anything else. Good luck.

For that price you could just go to a shop and have just about anything you want fabbed up...

And that's really the issue. Unless you can get the price point down below what a local shop will charge you for design fab and fitment, then there is no point.

This has always been a problem for the liberty, even the jk. The volume isn't there to support the kind of production runs needed to bring the costs down. That plus the complexity of the liberty bumper shape compared to the xj or the wranglers pushes costs even higher.

Basically, with the kk either fab locally and pay a high price or be prepared to pay an even higher premium for premade. No cheap options here.
