I saw those online a while back but didn't know how it would look on the jeep or how bright the LEDs would be. How does the light compare to the stock fogs?

Already paid off. :-) The monthly payments have since become daycare payments.

If you do not do more than trail riding, I would save it until something comes up you really need (or at least want).

A Warn winch while you got the extra money. Even if you do mild wheeling eventually you will get stuck and a winch will save the day. I am partial to Warn it aint cheap but you will never regret it.

I think it was in their latest ad/newsletter. Unfortunately I threw mine away. You might call and ask, or maybe another forum member has a copy and can check.

Here is my Bumper next to that ugly POS stock one
In my opinion that LOD is the perfect front bumper. Not too wide. Not too narrow. Simple but well made. Do the factory fogs fit?
