Default Pavement Ends Front Bumper

Does anyone have this Pavement Ends front bumper on their JK? I actually like it and not just because it’s got a good price… I like the plain, old school style of it. Also, if you have it, have you found a rear bumper and tire carrier that looks like it matches it?

So I just called Quadratec to order this bumper and they tell me that it is $199.99. It is clearly advertised for $154.99 on page 6 of their new catalog. Is it me or is this just wrong??

That is absolutely wrong. They need to honor the price that it is advertised at.

EDIT! I just looked in the catalog... it says "FROM" 154.99. Later in the catalog you can see that the TJ bumper is 154.99 but it's 199.99 for the JK version. I think it's still a good deal. Although, I haven't heard any feedback about this bumper.

It is advertised as "from 154.99", meaning that one of the bumpers in that year range is that price, but not necessarily all of them. Vendors have been doing this for years and nothing wrong with their advertisement.

I ordered one a bit ago from my friendly local independent retailer. I'm told it should be here soon. I'll update when I get it and mount the thing.

Thanks! I really like the simple look of it and the price is great! It looks like there is also a winch plate available for it.

I saw that and got pumped! I can't wait to see it. I don't think they will have a version with a tire carrier but maybe this bumper can be modified with one.

Does anyone have pictures of this bumper mounted up with the fog lights. I see 4wd.com has it for around $180. Also they have the rear bumper on their site. Pictures would be great! Thanks!
