Mr. RG, sure you don't want to sell that bumper and get you a stubby? Sure will be sad to see that thing chopped up, but I know it'll look killer once George is done with it. Just thought I'd ask.

I have thought about it..... but the only stubby that I really want won't allow me to keep the 2.5g air tank right behind the front bumper, I would have to relocate it again... probably using the RROR air tank / evap skid doohickey...

I have faith that Geo will get it like I want it.... he always does.


BTW here is what I would get if I had it to do all over again...


badass IMO

i can make yours look like that...........

I know this my friend....

That is bad ass, so many decisions, choices..................really, though does it ever end?

It never ends...... or at least I don't see an end to it from where I am standing....

Yeah, but once you, or myself anyway, consider it "done" something bigger or badder comes out, I seem to always be saying, man, I should have done that, or got that one, or gone bigger, or....or.....or.....or, eh you get my point.

But do agree from what I have seen of Jody's rig and reading all that he has done to it...............I'd consider it does look DONE! Nice. I'll get there, just slower than most, whah...............

Pretty decent looking and no it doesn't end and like you some of us are just have a slower pace = funding priorities ...

I keep threatning to get my own damn welding setup, but by the time I setup 220v at my house, make sure it's all to code in case we sell, then try and find a small amount of steel, blah blah blah...it ends up less expensive just having it built, I think, not positive and I'm not rich so I just have to take my time. I desperately need a rear bumper/tire carrier right now and want to donate my Shrockworks to Holly's JK and build my own front with a pissed off looking hoop...found one somewhere online that just looks sick, has a hoop and follows the grill lines/headlights and has this angled down pissed off look to it... ...rant off...

Post of a pic of the "pissed off" looking bumper/grille guard. That is what I want. I think that 1st pic I posted from, oh I forget the name, Off Road Armor, that's it I think-----------is mean "pissed off" looking and I'm trying my damnest not to go for it. If I did I would go through the Ebay merchant, he has assured me he has them in stock, they are NOT defective rejects, blah, blah, blah. Said he would work with me if there is a problem. Told him if there is ANY problem, there would be NO ORDER/SALE----he' seemed to understand that, and seemed like he'd like to work something out, who knows. I would just use a CC and dispute purchase, if any probelm arise, and let the credit card company deal with it.

Anyone is SA want to make some $$ and fab me a bumper or at least a grille guard for a full width bumper. I'd much rather pay one of you guys than give my $$$ to someone else. Just remember, I'm, very very, picky...............about my jeep,................ or bitchy, yeah that sounds more like me

Just get some electrical and cross it on your head lights lol.

Guess I just don't get the whole "pissed off" look thing.

uup4it gets my drift...

hawkman lemme find a pic of what I'm talking about, I've been trying to find this front bumper again for sometime now, just the angles of the tubing/etc that gave it an aggressive look is all. I'll post up when I find the pic.

is it this one?

hmm...not sure, need to see it on the JK actually. I'm thumbing through vendor pics now.

rooster on jko has this one

ok thanks I'm searching jko now for his...

thought it was this Genright Post #19 http://www.jkowners.com/forum/showthread.php?t=20315&highlight=bumper+pics

but still not it, doesn't have the angles I'm talking about, but similar protection at least. Post #24 is the pissed off/aggressive appearance sort of that I'm talking about but the stinger part on that one sucks.

No #19 & #24. Stupid bumper

Heh, I read this thread and think of the words of another...

As most know, I'm a lot more about function than form, and aesthetics typically escape me with the one exception being JK front bumpers. It's seems like there's a contest between vendors and JK owners to see who can make the butt ugliest contraption to hang from a pair of frame horns and an even bigger contingent of owners tripping over themselves to bolt one on.

That's one thing I do really like about Jeeps: there's something for just about any taste.
