X2, you can build it like you want and take off the end caps if you go climbing. CSE offroad has them for 539.00 free shipping with a hoop, removable bumper ends and winch mount. I just ordered mine from them.

I like the Ex One with factory flares (obvi.), but in the trail series it creeps up in price. I think your core looks sweet though. Ex One also designed the bumper to look and function best w/o an eye towards what it would cost to do (number of bends, welds, amount of material, pieces cuts....), so you end up wit a better thought out product. I also like the PS stuff, and given the OP's criteria, I would go that route.

I know it doesn't list for 2012 models, but it will give you a place to start.
I'm running the Expedition One Core Series also.

Shocked that LOD has not come up yet! Can get full, mid or stubby, bull bar, winch capability, factory fogs, comes powder coated, less than $900 for sure. I love my mid width, easy install too

I would love some suggestions regarding a new front bumper for my '12 Sahara JKU
My requirements are pretty straight forward.
1. I would like the new bumper to include hoop/bull bar.
2. Direct fit with basic installation on a 2012.
3. Retain stock foglight capability.
4. Must come painted.
5. NOT an AEV.
6. $900 or less give or take for shipping.
7. Winch capability would be nice but is not mandatory.
Pics are welcome.
Thanks in advance for any help!

Comes with winch plate (need countersunk harware). Takes fogs front & rear. Comes powdercoated or gloss black. Bought on Amazon, total cost was right at 1K. Easy install...for mine, no grinding, no relocation of vacuum pump. Obviously not AEV. Will stop an RPG...
