That is one of the best matched sets I have seen. Neither front nor rear suit me.. but they are pretty.

I have the arb stubby. Doesn’t look bad but I think the full width arb is the way to go for the additional protection and airbag function.

$2700 the pair. Plus tax. And that's after a $900 off sale! I'm gonna need more bourbon before I pull the trigger.

Really 2700 isnt that bad. Front bumpers arent that bad, but between the 2 leading rear bumpers in my shopping list are 1700 shipped (JCR) & 1700 for pickup (red summit) both prices including powder coat. So for the cost of 2700 for the pair its really about 1k for the front. My current front bumper isnt too awfully far off from that (about 800 shipped for a stubby).

Whatever you glean from this poll shouldn't influence you in the slightest, even though stubby is really the only correct answer.

Sounds like a personal problem to me...

Some bumpers act like they are more important than the entire Jeep itself. They smother the entire front of the Jeep, they demand more attention than the Jeep, the weigh a ton, they look lopsided and heavy and silly. So stubby is my preference. For those who like massive, full-width monstrosities, I could agree with you. But then we'd both be wrong.

Well let me convince you to save your money.. That rear bumper provides less protection then the Mopar steel rear with sliders. The front with its high winch mount does a fairly good job at blocking airflow to our engines & that lack of airflow is one of the biggest issues we have with heat.

Those are at least my reasons for why neither of those would ever make their way onto my JT.

Stop it! I love to live vicariously through others. Bro, have another couple drinks and pull that trigger! You'll be shocked in the morning but giddy as fuck by afternoon.

I went stubby rugged ridge hd because I don’t like the winch high on the grill to block air flow

Were you able to use the factory skid plate or does RR have their own?
