Default Bad Azz winch bumper

Finally got around to building a winch bumper, I hope to have it done next week. I plan on putting two lights and a hoop of some sort, I cant make up my mind on how I want to do it. What can I do to raise the front end back up it sagged a bit? What Do YOU all think of it?

Looks good! You can put some spacers on to raise it up a little bit

I ran 2" coils spacers with my winch bumper. It sagged about 2" so the spacers were perfect.

Is that the new Bubba Gump bumper?

Just kidding looks very stout and has nice clean lines, can you get some side pics of it? And how is it tied into the frame?

WAY too big for my tastes, but with that winch whatcha gonna do? Killed your approach angle. Craftsmanship looks outstanding tho, I feel sorry for anyone that pulls out in front of you!

Either your jeep is pouting or it has a fat lip. Ha ha. Just kidding. Shoot, mine weights 90 pounds! Yours looks really nice, I bet much better in person. These photos tend to exaggerate the size of the bumpers when they are the focal point of the picture. What does it look like at a distance?
