Not the worst thing I have ever seen but for that price you could get a full bumper. Unless you are trying hard to keep your cherokee stock looking because there are people who like them that way.

I have a different aries grill than the one you are looking for. But they all mount
with the same two brackets under the liscence plate. Im not a fan because
they both (the one you want and mine) can pivot at the mount. The steel
braces are 1/4" thick but are easly bent. If you hit something tall it will just send
the guard in to your headlights and grill. If you hit something low it will pivot
under and smush the bumper. Im not a fan of either

Does anyone know where to buy just mounting brackets for the 1043? I'm buying one second hand and I can't find anything

Collector/antique license plates are a joke tho,I had antique plates on my mustang and in my state you can only drive it on sundays.Or if your going to be in a parades/car show can't be used daily at all.But back on topic i would buy a real off road bumper its not much more and a lot stronger.Worse case keep your stock bumper you could put it back on if you had too.
