That does look sharp. Does anybody know if the crush cans are replacable though??? I'd probably hit something and be stuck with a dented crush can on a $500 bumper....

I was going to get the XHD modular, but will now be waiting for this bumper. This thing looks great!

I've only owned this jeep for 12 days and I have already spent almost $1500 on goodies. This dang thing is going to be expensive...

You've got some catching up to do...........

That bumper is a most reasonable alternative to the ARB bumper at about 1/2 the price (hopefully).

that thing is sweet! But I don't like the tube rear though, but the front is really nice.

Tube rear? If you mean the one with the tube sides, under the one with the fog lights, thats another front bumper. I dont like it either.

They are "sort of" replaceable if this bumper is the same as the older version without the fog lights. The crush cans are just tack-welded on underneath those plastic covers. I just cut mine off and put shackle mounts on instead. Much better in my opinion.

I'm sort of pissed that Mopar now releases this bumper with the fog mounts... wonder if I can get the mounts and put them in my bumper.

I'm in line too, nice looking bumper and putting the fogs in makes a lot of sense.

FYI....my local Jeep dealer told me the part number for the crush cans is 68031424AA for the old bumper if anybody ever rips them off...but, they can't seem to find them in stock anywhere??

This will probably be the bumper that I go with. I am just waiting to see when it comes out.
