as for chrome and everything else....all things are good in moderation.

as for bumpers having to match...I'm not really sure what you mean? As in brand? or by the way they look? As stated before some companies make fronts but not rears or some just make rears.

Anyways, I wish I could even afford a front bumper at this point. Matching or not, haha.

Nah, you are fine. I think is okay to mix and match brands of front and rear bumpers.

I would try and get the front and rear bumper to be in a similar finish so they look like they match. x2 on NO chrome on a Jeep. Worse yet are gold wheels, no that is a sacrilege!

I would say as long as the finish matches, go for it. I will probably do the same thing.

I plan on getting AEV front and Expedition One rear. I just wish they would add reverse light cutouts to that bumper.

bought LOD front bumper last fall and it started to rust about a month after I'm in the market for a rear w/tire carrier but not sure if I'll go with LoD. But then again, I think they all rust no matter how much you pay.....

No issues here. I want the PJ front Stubby, but not sure about the rear yet, the PJ is nice, but there are others out there that I like as well.

I say different strokes for different folks. I don't like chrome, but hey thats me. Mixing front and rear bumpers, .......if they want to it's their Jeep.
Its' the same as people saying it's sacrilege that you drive a JK ( not a real Jeep) It's a Jeep, if people want to have a different look, than who cares?

You mean like Rock Hard, M.O.R.E., Schrockworks, Warn, Purejeep, Fab Fours, Mopar, LOD, Rugged Ridge...

Guess I was lucky.
