Default Front bumper decision.

K so I found somebody selling their old jcr bumper with bulbar and tie ins for 200 bucks. But today a buddy sent me this link:

http://norfolk.craigslist.org/pts/2801292067.html

I'd be able to get the front for 75 and he'd get the rear for 75. Now the one in this Craigslist ad is a winch bumper and the jcr is not. I'd like a winch bumper but not a huge fan of tube bumpers. What do you gets think?

Yeah I'd like to have a winch and I guess I could always get a different bumper. Anybody know if it looks like a certain brand?

No there's no receiver built in other wise that would solve that issue.
