i cant justify dropping $300+ on a tiny aluminum bumper from those guys
have any fab skill or friends with fab skills?
you can build a custom bumper for dirt cheap and make it look and function however you want

I think Savvy has a 10% discount code, but I could not find the thread where Provelogear posted it. The other vendor I would suggest is Rokmen. You cant go wrong with either vendor. southtxdstroyer, whats wrong with a short, light weight, very sturdy bumper that functions just like it was designed to do?

Savvy. It's the only bumper I'd buy if I was shopping.

Of course the op didnt state if he likes the look of bare aluminum or wants to paint his own bumper. He also didnt specify if he wanted to have any options with his bumper as in length, end caps, shackle mounts, stinger, fairlead, winch protection etc..

bumpers?

I am saving quarters for a new front bumper myself. I know Nate's has had troubles, but in checking out their stuff, I find they have good prices and the design I am looking for. When I get the cash, I will probably go with them. That is, if they are still in business.

he said he liked the savvy.
I said it's the bumper I would buy.

MC stuff is interesting but not for me. I hope your new bumper works out for you.

I bought a Savvy... I did look at the Metal Cloak and Rokmen, but I already had a Full width Hanson, that I always loved, but wanted to go "stubbier"... the Savvy was the only bumper that I liked enough to sell the Hanson for...

I'm ready to sell my Hanson Rear/Tire Carrier to get a Savvy rear/tire carrier sight unseen (as they are so far unreleased and they are not leaking any spy-photo's) I am a convert to the low weight, high strength, no-nonsense alternative that Savvy is offering in their bumper/skids and armor. I also trust in the technical expertise and experience of MrBlaine and Gerald and fully believe that they wouldn't sell something that they didn't beleive was the absolute best, most innovative and most Savvy product on the market.

I don't yet run the trails of Johnson Valley, but hope to someday do so, and I'll be ready for them, and everything else that I run until I do.

Losing weight off my rig by being Savvy is addictive...like Aluminum CRACK!
