bumpers ain't worth it if they're ugly. especially when they're ugly because they're just too big and square. How hard is it to cut some metal to fit the lines of a vehicle?

Plenty of smaller time guys out there that don't sell stuff on 4wd etc. Some off the top of my head (most are vendors and you can get a discount)

What do you currently have on there? What are your plans? Making it crawl over rocks is a broad goal

Your right buddy, if it was easy everyone even him would be doing it. If very many are going to be made it takes jigs or better and lots of other equipment $$$$$ none come cheap. Well after seeing how some are put together I do see how they sell them cheap and a lot of them.
One thing on my race cars that I didn't build were the Roll Cages that is an art in itself plus it has to pass NHRA inspection before you even test the car, they use x-rays to test the welds.
Many items I have bought and have looked at for Jeeps are not well built and some use to lightweight materials for whatever it is. It's a real shame that these items are even offered.
