JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

Anyone running a GenRight JK Alum Front Bumper?

They sure do look good but its a shame that when spending so much money for these products they fail when it comes to the installation .

Nice; I'm contemplating this GenRight rear bumper as well. Other then difficulties in aligning the new bumper bolt holes with the OEM hole mounts, did you have to drill or cut to mount just the bumper?

I hope they work out great for you guys. My concern would be when winching something with some serious weight. I bent my fabfours when winching and that is 3/16th steel. I have since reinforced it with 1/4" thick plates under it.

Thsee are not a bolt on product. You have to drill holes and cut and grind. Doing it by yourself sucks and is not recommended. The instructions are a bit vague because they cover different models. And also before you install make sure you buy the reverse led lights for the rear bumper and the license plate light from them also.
