Default What Bumpers are these?

So i bought my jeep with these bumpers on it. I have searched and searched for what type of bumpers they are but i cannot find them anywhere. The front bumper has holes in it for a winch plate along with 4 other additional holes. I checked the insides of them to see if there was any writing or any numbers of some kind, there are none. Help is greatly appreciated!

I thought that was a possibility too, but the welds look to clean to be homemade in my opinion. Everything on my jeep is super ghetto so i dont think the old owner made them lol.

Or good with a grinder. With enough time you can make any weld look good, as long as it has good and even penetration.

Haha well thank you guys for the help. I just dont understand why he would have drilled the holes in it. I was looking to get a light bar or a stinger that would fit it. I just dont know what would fit.

I do like my bumpers and yes they work great for me. Because i would like to add things to the front bumper like a winch plate and possibly a light bar. There are holes for them and I wanted to know what type of bumper it was so i could buy those parts.

Rock Hard 4x4 front bumper and Olympic 4x4 rear bumper

All the holes in the front bumper are for a bolt on grill guard and winch plate.
