Sick. the rear bumper is nice for a crawler. I don't get the combo with the carbon fiber fenders, but that suspension is going to be killer.

any reason why you couldn't have a receiver welded on here? decrease the breakover angle, but also let me tow something with it? I like how the tire carrier comes off, then i can still haul plywood. =)

My last jk bumper is a shorty, with built in hitch from JCR. Love the hug, but the cut made it so no stock reciever would work. Had to have one cut and even then only insert pin from back. It would not work well in actually tow situations. Towing or not determines what your priority is back here.

But I want to have my cake and eat it too. =)

Those KCs get me all warm and fuzzy every time I see them.

And rear coilovers! Hadn't seen that yet.

I don't know who did the fenders on this one, but I talked to Anderson composites, who I have worked with in the past on carbon fiber projects for go fast cars. They are indeed making a CF hood, fenders, and grille. For looks the hood could be cool, maybe the grille, but I don't get replacing stock fenders with cf personally. I'll stick to steel for the parts that rub.

Does cf bend better than plastic?
