Post a picture of your front end AND name the brand and model of your bumper! I want a thread where I can look at all the aftermarket front bumpers and know their manufacturer and model.

It doesn't work unless you post pictures of bumpers...

I would love to see this too. I am about ready to buy a bumper and winch for my Mojave.

Warn Elite Full Width 10335, more recently than this picture is paired with Warn sway bar disconnect skid plate 10445. Iā€™m using a Warn EVO 12s winch. Very happy with all. Looks good, takes a beating, priced right, and has an integrated winch plate rated for 12k with no distortion. I specifically wanted a winch mounted as low as possible to keep it below the grill.

I like the down low look but I too wanted a 12k rated bumper with integrated winch plate. Motobuilt ticked all the boxes including the stubby bonus box. When you have so many requirements the affordable options become less and less.

This is the one I am considering:
Rock Slide Engineering FB-F-100-JL Rigid Front Bumper with Bullbar & Winch Plate for 18-22 Jeep Wrangler JL & Gladiator JT

Jeep Gladiator The Definitive Front Bumper Thread 1638493129149
Or the
WARN 101337 Elite Series Full Width Front Bumper with Grille Guard for 18-22 Jeep Wrangler JL & Gladiator JT
Jeep Gladiator The Definitive Front Bumper Thread 1638493338445

Think it would be really bump it up a notch to coat either one in line-x or a similar product. Currently running stock 2020 overland.

I like it too. They make the same bumper in a stubby. I just wanted the full width for fog lights. The stubby is also 12k rated.

I havenā€™t added a winch yet, but I fell in love with this Rough Country - Tubular front bumper after many months of searching for one that looked great. It came with all the LED lights and the quality exceeded my expectations.

I love this thread. I'm also looking for a front bumper, but I plan to flat tow behind my motorhome and need a bumper that can accommodate that. If I keep the factory bumper, there are solutions for flat towing. I also have the factory LED lights, and love the light from the LED fog lights, so being able to move them to the new bumper is also necessary.

Call Warn to check. I think mine is rated for flat tow, but donā€™t quote me. Check for yourself. As for the fogs, thatā€™s one reason I chose this as well. It takes the factory led fogs.
