Lol I won't do chrome. I like Aaron's, but I won't add chrome to an unchromed Jeep.

I am starting to consider tube bumpers due to the width of the frame rails on the MJ. Can't really do the rear design I want.

Yea, my chrome is factory. Time that is a hard one. I don't like tube on an xj just because. Xjs are boxy. IMHO doesn't blend well.

Was gonna buy that Or-Fab bumper til I read reviews. Every review I read: my winch is the first thing to hit rocks. I'm replacing this bumper.

Aaron, I hate tube on XJs, but I don't think it's as bad on a pickup.

I dont like tube bumpers at all. I think they allow you to see everything too well. Like under the jeep. My friend has them on his TJ and you can see where he cant really clean and when the paint isnt cleared well.

I don't like tube on anything post-YJ cause it looks tacky.

Ive never really looked at anything before a YJ. I see a kid at school with a bright green YJ on like 4" and 31s with the aftermarket fenders that are really high. He has tube front and back and i dont like it. He also doesnt take care of it because i would see him try to crank it and nothin would happen. Like once a week.
