LSR Incline WJ Front Bumper
This bumper just went on pre-order today. I almost want to get a WJ just so I can get it.

It is cool but for 900 to 1300 dollars, whatever it is, I will make my own.

Having seen this bumper in person at GSW I can attest to the Quality! The fit and finish is spot on 
Greg has a winner here it is better than any other WJ bumper for quality. Now if he will get on the stick and make a rear bumper to match with a tire carrier option (Hint Hint)

Compared to the new ProtoFab bumper the introductory price isn't that bad.
The winch sits lower on this one and it has fog lights, but no light bar an option on the ProtoFab bumper.
And yes if you have the ability and materials you could build your own for less, but these guys are running a business and trying to make some money.
It would be a hard choice for me between the two if they had both been out at the same time. I have the Protofab. I went out Sat. and had no probelms with clearance or running the winch.

Im going to take a stab in the dark and say he'll be pulling about 600 profit easily from each bumper. Greedy IMO.
Great looking bumper though.

That WJ looks AWESOME and if I had the cash I would be on the list right now but seeing that I don't I think I'll be sticking to my $150 front reciever...

I think Kevin's site has a deal. $200.00 down and make payments. Give him a call.
