I suggest you go with the Smittybilt SRC. I just got one for Christmas and the quality looks and feels solid to me. Really like the looks of the Smittybilt bumpers.

I would really recommend LOD for your wants or Expedition One.

I am currently running the SRC mentioned above (solid but heavy... Also no provisions for fog lights) but I am selling it to get a JCR dagger stubby.

Under $800
Winch Mount (although I will not put one on till a later date)
Fog Light Mounts (not a deal breaker)
I would prefer to stay with a mid to full width
I really like the look of the Smittybilt SRC but have concerns over the quality
I also really like the N-Fab JK RWB bumper but have not found a single picture of one mounted up.

And last but not least, I do not do any serious off roading. The extent of my time off road involves getting to hunting camp on logging roads but nothing to serious.

Thanks guys (and gals) for any help!
Congrats! You are now a man...and to be more of a man you need the only bumper I am about to suggest.

Under $800-------under $400
Winch Mount (although I will not put one on till a later date)----yup!
Fog Light Mounts (not a deal breaker)----intergrated---yup!
I would prefer to stay with a mid to full width----real men use stubbies...to each their own! I will not fault you for that.
