I have my Nates4x4 bumper on order and hopefully it will be arriving soon. I also secured a new apartment that has an awesome garage! Finally one of my own..now I guess i'll have to spend all my money on tools! LOL
Thanks man.

Nates 4x4 bumper looks almost the same, right?

I picked this one because I like the stinger on it :P

They are a little different. I haven't seen a Nates in person yet to formally compare, but this is what it looks like...

Yeah looks pretty similar apart from being welded

The Rough Country bumper has a light bar option like that too

I paid $593 with all the options. I liked the Hansons too, but they are way too expensive. Nate has some pretty awesome combo deals on his site too.

Heck ya dude! That's a lot better than paying 6 or 700 for one without anything on it.

This morning I purchased a set of HIDs to put in the Jeep. I went with the Kensun 6000k Bi-Xenon H4 bulb kit since it was over 70% off, and I purchased some nice glass housings.

HID lights, ballasts, and wiring came in. Now I'm just waiting on the housings, which should be here tomorrow.
