Price: $270.00
Pros: Easy Install, Very Durable, Rough looking texture.
Cons: 4 mount points rather then the stock 6, tough to install off-road lights.
Recommended? Yes

Comments: I love the bumper. Looks great on my jeep and any other jeep i have seen it on. It has a tough and rough feeling/looking texture. Very durable and looks like it can take a few hits. Its a little heavy but considering what it does I dont mind.

Price: $235.00
Pros: Easy Install, Great fit, nice black textured finish, cheap, great upgrade from stock. D-Ring mounts.
Cons: Fairly Weak
Recommended? Yes

Comments: Picked up the Smittybilt SRC bumper from 4Wheel Parts the other day for $235 after taxes, on sale. Easy install and looks great on the YJ. The only concern is the weak mounting. It has D-Ring mounts but with only 2 bolts supporting the bumper to the frame I dont think i want to be pulling my rig up with their help. I would still definitely recommend this product.

Pros: Strong, well made, 4 light tabs and 2 D-ring mounting points
Cons: None
Recommended? Yes

Comments: Bolts directly on with no modifications or drilling required. Bumper is well made and has 4 tabs to mount off road lights as well as 2 D-ring tabs. Begs to have a winch installed behind it!

Price: $249.99
Pros: Very well built, great welds and durable coating. Great look as well
Cons: none
Recommended? Yes

Comments: I ordered from 4wd.com, came in about 4 business days. The bumper took about an hour and a half to install, no drilling or anything required, perfect fit. Great looks, has four spots for lights, two on the bottom edges and two on top. Could very easily mount a winch on it also. The coating is like a bedliner/rhinoliner that has pretty much stood up to anything. great product, great price, i recommend it

Price: $246.00
Pros: mounts for up to four lights
Cons: not really a con for me, but if your short and you need to raise the hood to check your oil or what not, the bumper can get in your way.
Recommended? Yes

Comments: This bumper bolts directly to the factory mounts on the frame. If you plan in putting a winch on the bumper, you should buy the raised winch plate for the bumper, this will minimize interfearance.

Price: $300.00
Pros: Easy to install. Lots of locations for lights.
Cons: Needs wiring loom as had to drill for the holders for light wiring harness.
Recommended? Yes

Comments: I like how this bumper installed . It was only remove the bolts and reinstallthe bolts that are supplied with the new bumpers. Looks good as you can see from my uploaded pictures. As I said in the cons needs to have manufacturer installed wiring loom or you have to drill the bumper for holders of your wiring for the lights.

Pros: Easy hookup. No cutting. Very Strong.
Cons: Popular bumper.
Recommended? Yes

Comments: The front bumper is awesome. Easy to install, comes already painted, bolts up quickly to stock points. Only issue is that it is a very popular bumber so you're not the only person on the road with it.

Price: $400.00
Pros: *Durable and functional *Built-in Warn winch mount *(2) pre-drilled light holes *1/4" thick welded/power coated steel
Cons: *had to drill the factory holes larger and was a little pain to put on cause of it's weight
Recommended? Yes

Comments: You can't beat the price of this bumper considering the quality. I love the fact that the D-Ring holes are welded along. In fact, the entire bumper is welded. Plus, I love the Warn winch mounted built right in.

Price: $300.00
Pros: Good bumper for a reasonable price. Good ground clearance and asthetics.
Cons: The coating chips away easily so I had it Line-Xed and the weld on one side of the bumper interfered with the winch mount. Also the light tabs could be a little better positioned.
Recommended? Yes

Comments: Overall a good bumper for the price. I have not strength tested it yet or hit anything to see how good it will hold up. I am sure like most bumpers it would take damage if I were to run into something semi-solid on the trail or on the road. There is room for improvement in the welds and in the quality of the coating. Mine chipped away around where my shackels are so when I had my Jeep Line-Xed I took the bumpers in as well. Also the light mounting tabs are too far below the top of the top tube to mount many lights with out fabricating a bracket as I did to mount my PIAAs. The lower light tabs also required me to fabricate some spacers.
