I was worried you say that. Damn amazing bro. Looks like the one you see for the OME XJ lift advertisement. Any better pics (non-distorted) of it, say a full side shot? I HAVE to learn to weld and get a welder again.

The front looks great, the rear is ok. If you like it that is all that counts, I personally do not like the Nates rear bumper I think they need an update the bumper and follow the lines of the body more

I agree rear just doesn't match up the best. Might be because you have a cut n folded rear...

Functionalit comes first though. That's what really matters.

I'm gonna have to get familiar with bumper fab... I'm too ****ing cheap to pay all the money the companies want for a bumper. Partly due to the fact that NONE of them are exactly what I want.

How much was you winch including synth rope? If you don't mind sharing...

Very nice XJ.Bumpers look good.I agree-the rear bumper looks "off",but it's probably 'cause of the cut "n" fold.

I am not sure how much he paid for his xrc8 comp but I paid 412 for my xrc8 comp but it was a display model so I got about 50.00 off of mine. The usually go for 459
