I bought a front bumper from Nathan, i have yet to have time to paint and install but it is an excellent piece at a fraction of the price of comparable bumpers. He is a very nice guy and called me to confirm my order was correct before shipping. Would not hesitate to do business with him again.

- Entire vehicle in photo (We will crop out background / blur out plate numbers)
- Clean vehicle
- Good lighting, minimal shadows (We've had the best luck taking outdoor pictures with a bright but overcast sky, if that makes sense.)
- Quality paint job on bumper
- No cell phone pics
- No modifications to bumper
Thanks!!!

Install was a PITA. My error. Read instructions after you paint it to save time. You can remove all the parts while the paint dries. I didn't read until ready to install. Also, don't tighten ANY of the bolts until done. Measurements are dead on and no room to wiggle. Last two bolts are a PITA. One you have to file or drill out (passenger side). The other just faught me (to line up). The black ball was relocated inside. I used bolts and not the zip ties included. Just preference there. Over all, VERY nice bumper. A+ on workmanship.
This old man is tired. I'll post a better one if requested.

I coated my front bumper Monday, installed it on Tuesday. Started at 10am and before 12 the bumper, winch and my lights were installed. Best bumper install I have done in a long time and I am 44 and move a little slower. I had a good friend help me and he said " this is going way to smooth and it's starting to scare me"! He knows from past experiences that nothing goes smooth when working on the XJ! I am very pleased with the bumper and install. Now it's on to the rear!
