Default Rear bumper

Hi everyone.

I have taken my spare tire off of the factory mount and put on a new third brake light. Now the question is...what rear bumper should I buy. I hate having the stock rear bumper. I am not looking for a tire carrier. Just a rear bumper. I am interested in the rugged ridge rear bumper. I really really like the pure jeep rear bumped but the semi gloss black would not match the jeep at all with it's matte black fender flares and corners and bumper.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance,

Sean

M.O.R.E. has one that opens and closes with tailgate. It's very solid and easy to install! You can have them option is some d-ring provisions too...

They are having a 20% off sale! Which means I was robbed in July when I ordered mine!

Default Rear Bumper

Check the Genright. All aluminum, comes unfinished. Has great lines. Buy you a Herculiner kit, and put the old bed liner on it and it will look great.

I'm pro- ARB.



•follows the JK lines really well & looks good

•beefy. its take hits while wheeling and no damage

•hi-lift points built in

only thing is it may not match what you're looking for color-wise. My other suggestion would be OR-Fab. They come in 2 different finishes - bicycle black & textured.
