Ugh I’m so jealous. I have the non-removable version. I didn’t know they made different styles. So if anyone wants to trade for a Rubicon bumper that doesn’t have the removable ends let me know!!

Let me correct you. You have what is know as non factory removable wings. A angle grinder, sawzall or well trained beaver will cut the wings off in no time:like:

Wait.. I will argue that point it takes like 20 mins there is SO much locktite on those bolts it not even funny. I made my 13 year old take them off and he complained the entire time. Especially putting the bolts back in after.

For the JK you could hacksaw the ends off and their were some caps that made it look decent. Any such luck on the JL/JT?
