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.

Custom Bumper Anyone?

Go for it and don't stop dreaming up stuff, there are too many people that will say you can't do something. Do it and if it works that's great, if it doesn't then learn from it and keep designing cool stuff.

Never let go of the dream!

Looks good, if you mass produced it I would surely buy it!

ALthough- I did notice a potential design flaw- you can't have your fog lights that close and have an integrated winch in the bumper. There isn't room for both. You'd have to widen the foglights like the LOD mid length or have the winch mounted higher up similar to the orfab.

Good luck finding an acurate one. I Dont actually own a jeep yet, so i have no actual dimensions to go off of, so i definately feel your pain.
