Where did you see that price? It looks like $700 to me.

my personal favorite is the detours tail bone. sure theres no real armor on it but it looks good and is probly the cheepets and more well tied in to the unibody carriers out there

I always wanted the stock version but they're barely strong enough for a 31" tire

I put a 33x12.5 on a steel wheel on it and the whole carrier just about fell off my jeep. The hinges were completely ruined.

I have that rear bumper without the tire carrier. It looks very good if you cut and doses the rear like I did. Otherwise I agree, it leaves the tailend unfinished. But for the price It would be ok . I just hope they add frame tie INS because the pics on the site don't show any. If they don't you will be chasing your bumper down the highway sooner or later.

I just ordered a dnd bumper today. The service is fantastic and he quoted me 625 shipped and thats with a custom wraparound. I will post pictures as soon as I get it, but it will take 2 weeks. Also they now come with frame tie-ins.
