I don't think so but they will be offering the bumper with aftermarket foglights in the event you don't already have them.

A) Does it fit the Superwinch EP9.0? Some bumpers (like shrockworks) don't.
B) What is the cost without the hoop? I went to the site you mentioned and while you could order it for $499 there was no place to de-select the hoop nor was any discount shown for no hoop.
:confused:Thanks

A couple questions:

B. First off, the $499 is just an introductory price and it will go up later on in the year. 2nd, there is no 'without' hoop price as one has not been released yet. All the bumpers in the first batch are being made with hoops so deselecting this option was not made available.

A. Honestly, I don't know but I have talked to LoD and they are looking into it now. There is a lot of room to play with side to side so that shouldn't be a problem but the fairlead hole is made to fit inline with the Power Plant and most any other winch. If the EP 9.0 is mounted in a way that is different, that might be the only problem.

Are you trying to do your advertiser a favor? If you are, you might want to re-think your approach. Your attitude in the post above really makes me want to rush out and get an LOD bumper now... Not. I've heard rumors about you but refused to believe them. I guess they were true.

I had the opportunity to tour the Superwinch plant in CT last winter and the place was amazing. After seeing the engineering and thought that goes into their winches I was sold! Seriously great stuff.

I completely understand.
I'm sorry but, what??? Honestly, I have no idea where that came from and didn't realize that I had attitude or was being rude. So far as I could tell, I just answered your question. Could you please point out where I might have indicated to you otherwise as it sincerely wasn't my intent.
Really? Well, perhaps that's why you were so eager to jump to conclusions about what I was saying as opposed to just taking it as a simple answer. Thanks for giving me the benefit of the doubt
Ummm... Mr. wayfoflife... whats with the attitude and rudeness? My questions were fair and reasonable. Your post and press release makes no mention of this being an introductory price and the press release states that it is available with or without the hoop and that this bumper is available now. Scheesh dude! Take some midol. Are you trying to do your advertiser a favor? If you are, you might want to re-think your approach. Your attitude in the post above really makes me want to rush out and get an LOD bumper now... Not.

To me, the "First" and "2nd" read rather aggressively. Like you couldn't believe that I would make such a question. However if a vendor is offering something available now then the options to purchase it how you want it should be available too. I'd also expect something with less labor and materials to cost less.
As to jumping to conclusions, you have me there. Perhaps the numerous stories I've read on the internet from other people claiming you banned them for simply disagreeing with you may have clouded my judgment.
Because of that I apologize. I should have given you the benefit of the doubt. Hopefully our interactions will be far more amicable in the future.

It's all good by me. I know there are all kinds of stories out there about me and for all I care, you can believe them all. But, please know that I have sincerely just tried answering your questions and that's all. 
And, speaking of your questions, I have talked to LoD and was told that the Superwinch EP 9.0 will fit but you will need to indicate as much when placing your order as new mounting hole will need to be specially made. Also, I got LoD to commit to a w/o hoop price and it will be -$20 for now.
If you have any other questions, please let me know.
