I've been researching some ideas for a sweet aftermarket front bumper.

I don't want a winch and I don't want anything too beefy but something badass and that will get the job done.

if anyone has any sweet ideas / pics that would be sick!

 

If you can make something on your own you'd be better off that way. You will always appreciate something you made way more than something you bought. But if buyings out of your range I'd look at Hansen and jcr. There's so many people that make bumpers you just have to look.

 

Talk to hudfab in the vendor section. Give him an idea what you would like and he can build it

 

We sell a bunch of different XJ bumpers. If you want something more DIY, we do sell DIY kits as well.

The JCR ones look great and simple.

 

2nd vote for Hudfab, I love my front bumper from him

 

try searching?

I personally favor the third one down on the white xj

edit: also check out dirtboundoffroad.com

 

I really like that one but i didnt see that specific one on JCRs website... can you send me a link of where you got it?

 

seriously? its the first bumper pictured on that link he posted

 

That's our old style bumper, this is the updated "Crusader Series" version:

That looks even better than mine.

 

Buddy of mine "Unleashed" on the forum does all his own bumper, rack, and custom fab work i'm sure he could weld you up something beefy, simple, and nice. I'm having him do all mine unless I can convince him to teach me Really great thing is we are both local to you here in the San Fernando Valley so you could pick up and deal person to person. Shoot him a PM.

I loovvee that one. I'll be exploring more options but that's at the top of the list right now.

I saw they don't come finished, would you recommend getting it professionally done? I was thinking a spray on bed liner finish on that might be sick. Thoughts??

 

You won't find anything with better quality, a better design, faster lead times and better pricing
