Modularity is the new move. I would have rather an ARB bumper but couldn’t justify 1000+ when I’m not quite set in what I want to do with the jeep yet.
If someone already has a full width, I would anted one too, you can chop it and create your own modular. I did that last year with my full width steel. I realized I couldn’t make the full width not hit my tires off road. So I had nothing to lose. I’d either succeed or not. No reason not to. Now I’d do it again. Even paying a welding shop wouldn’t cost much. Cut the ends, add plates of steel to the stubby and wings, drill a few bolt holes. Then clean up and paint.

Ideally modular and aluminum is my plan but hard to find and like u pointed hard to find for reasonable
That was my problem. I didn’t want to pay 1-2k for a replacement. What I did cost way less than even buying a stubby.

Both of those bumpers in the links above are modular. If you zoom in the pics the seam and attachment bolts are right around in the fog light area.
