So heres the deal i want to find a front bumper for my 98 jeep cherokee. Dont know which one will look best on my jeep i dont want to spend all kinds of money on one so it can look stupid. I like the clean and mean look of my jeep but want an offroad bumper keeping the stock fenders. Lots of those pics they have online have fender flares not sure if the stock ones of a 97+ will look dumb or not. any input is greatly appriciated! Heres my jeep now

Here's my 98 with the Smittybilt from Serious.
It's really stout and a great price.

Personally, I think the ARB has to be the best looking front bumper sticking with the stock flares.

I love my Nates 4x4 Slimline Winch Bumper.




I got it with all the options, I think it was about $500 with free shipping. Very solid and beefy.

I think it looks kinda goofy with that huge of a bumper and no lift. It's a good looking bumper though. especially for the price... Which is the only issue with the ARB... not cheap... I loke my dirtbound bumper but I think it would look stupid as **** with factory flares. It's got one hell of an approach angle though!

One project at a time! Long arms, 35s and flat flares are going on this jeep very soon.

explains why your pockets are empty... prepare to spend at least 500 more than you are prepared to spend.

JCR offroad makes some very good bumpers that are pretty clean looking, and they don't stick out to much to you don't loose approach and it doesn't look like you have a park bench on your rig.

There is a guy that sells a winch bumper for $275 shipped. For the life of me, I can't think of who it is.

That's why I'm waiting a little longer until my tax refund comes, doing smaller, cheaper project...wait nevermind, bedlining my jeep turned into about $800 more than I planned. Rust repair + frozen bolts + new welder (hopefully..)

Was it this one?
