Default best looking front bumper?

Well guys, hit a buick the other day and now it seems I need a new bumper. I was looking at the warrior front bumper as I like the looks of it really well, I'm trying to keep the jeep looking pretty close to oem but still protect my jeep as I only have liability I'm not looking for a tube bumper or anything as my jeep is 2wd and all. I plan a 4wd swap when the tranny dies but that is a long way off. So what bumper looks best to you? Kinda looking for that "looks like its supposed to be there" look, ya know?

IMO the JCR stage 3 with the hoop looks killer

I really like this bumper, maybe not be the "looks like its supposed to be there" theme but you can make up for being a 2wd with a winch. Thats what I have planned at least. Then when you have the parts for a 4x4 conversion you'll be all set, then just lock it!

Love the look of that bumper.. and that warrior one looks pretty good.

But I like the look of stock bumpers and endcaps.

Do you have to trim the fender off at the lights with all these bumpers?
