Any ideas? I know they're all pretty similar, but the lower half is new to me. At first glance I'd say Westin, but the tube's are thinner and the skid plate doesn't have the cutout with the name in it. It's FS locally but the guy kinda wants a lot for it, saying it was $500 new *eep* If anyone has any info on it I'd appreciate it. He listed it OBO... I don't want to pay too much for it if it's cheap, but I don't want to lowball him if it's really a nice one! Thanks!

if you're willing to pay 300 for it, you might as well save up the extra 500 and get a REAL front bumper. in the grand scheme of things, it's REALLY not that much more expensive.

hmmm Tal & Hadas maybe? Looks more like a Toyota bar than one for a Jeep.

By real do you mean like an ARB or just a full brush guard? ARB is not practical for my girlfriends 2wd =) Maybe if it was mine =) I could get a black westin actual brush guard for the same price, but it's still a little much. Looking for something not so bulky, pref chrome with mounting points for lights.

T&H one is very big, and has that unique smaller tube style skid on the bottom. This one looks smaller. Toyota ones are similar or single bar loops.

Their catalog isn't up at all. Going by their misc pics on the site, it looks similar is shape, but the skids on theirs all have circular holes.

The more I think of it, he says its for a 06-07, and at first I figured it would work on a 02, but now I'm not so sure.

that would make more sense b/c it looks a little too wide to be for 02-05

The seller finally got back to me. It was made by BIG COUNTRY and sold by EARL OWENS OFF ROAD. Mystery solved.

I didn't think about the forward most bumps on the bumper being a lot further apart on the 06 than the 02. Hm. Oh well, guess I'll wait around some more for one I like to come up used =) Looking for something like a chrome Mopar or maybe a chrome Westin safari light bar.
