Ok, unfortunately i got into a small car accident with the libby yesterday..
Some old lady didnt know what she was doing and cut in front of my jeep and i bumped her on her driver side rear quarter panel.
My jeep if fine besides a shattered turn signal lens and small crumple in my front bumper, passenger side.

I doubt we are going to make an insurance claim because i live in Michigan, a no fault state.
Cop clearly told me it was not my fault and i did not get a ticket. Old lady is being sent back to drivers training review because this wasn't her first accident recently.

Now.. I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO!!!

I would die for an ARB Bumper, but im on a tight college budget.
I could wait spring, when i have more money but i would hate to have an ugly broken bumper for the winter.

SO after all this, i want to know where i can get the cheapest ARB or ARB OFF BRAND bumper.
I dont need all the winch and crazy lights. As you can see in my default picture, i have two small hellas on my bumper now.

SO PLEASE HELP IF YOU CAN.

THANKS ALL :JEEPIN:

ARB and cheap should not go in the same post....that said, Rusty's had the best price when I bought mine. Was $850 and another $150 for shipping.

Hmm, i know they dont come cheap but as i said im on a really tight budget.
I actually wont be able to do it for a while just because of money, BUT i thought i would ask if there was another Brand that is nice

Find a fab shop and see if they can fab you up a bumper.

I doubt if you could find anyone to fab up a custom bumper for less than the cost of an ARB.

If the bumper damage is minor like you say, I'd just replace the turn signal and leave the rest alone till you can afford to upgrade. I know it looks ugly now, but you'll forget about it in a week, and you won't have spent money on something you'll be throwing away later when you do upgrade (you'll need that turn signal to mount in the ARB; the rest of the bumper gets thrown out).

When I got my ARB I stupidly cut the fenders before I realized ARB had left out a part I needed to mount the bumper. So I drove around for two weeks with the fender flares cut in half and duct tape all over while I waited for them to send the part. I'm sure it looked a lot worse than yours, but I stopped noticing by the end of the first week.

I don't know about that
I could say cheap and ARB go together
but then I got mine used back when there weren't so many people looking for them
and the guy wanted to sell it fast :BANANA:
