My Final Decision!
Wanted to post the photos of the new bumpers I chose for my JK. The rear bumper and tire carrier is from Expedition One and I have to thank roadking54 for the suggestion to have them powder coat the hinge cover and the D-rings. So nice to get rid of the squeaks from the tailgate due to the spare 35" on the stock carrier.
The front bumper is an AEV Premium Bumper, with IPF 7" fog lights. No winch. Yet. There appear to be no issues with the finishes - they look identical to me.
Bought from Northridge 4 x 4 and installed locally here in San Antonio by INXS Auto and Truck Accessories.
One more thing - I also bought the 3rd brake light kit from E1 and the guys at INXS came up with a sweet mod - they cut out part of the plastic center hub cap on my MT rims so that when I step on the brakes, the light shines right through.
Thanks again to all who posted their advice and input. Hope this helps someone else down the line.
