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.

Default KC bumpers

Anyone seen the new KC bumpers? I liked them, noticed I said liked. Look at the pirces on these things.



$2086.16....yes, that's right ! 2 GRAND!




Front is not much better at $1434.24.


All that I can say is WOW! I have too say that I've seen may, many more attractive options for way less coin. I bet they aren't moving too many of those rear bumper/carriers.

No kidding. Correct em if I'm wrong, but KC has never put out a full flegged bumper, have they? I actually thought that they would be cheaper than most since this would be the first outing. Boy was I wrong.

They appear to be out of touch with the market They will sit on everyone they make at that cost Thoses costs exceed every bumper that I have seen for both front and back. Way too much of a premium

The front is listed as 919.99 on Quadratec
http://www.quadratec.com/products/12123_100.htm

And the rear is 1399.99
http://www.quadratec.com/products/12123_110.htm

Yeah I was pretty surprised when I saw those prices on the KC website but they are a lot more reasonable on Quadratec.
