Shrockworks Bumper and Rock Rail on Project JK

Any more pictures (underneath?) of how the sliders mount, etc?
Also, I mentioned in another thread (another brand bumper) that an option that I would like to see in the winch mount bumpers is a removable steel plate over the top winch opening. This would be very attrractive for those of us who may or may not want a winch down the road but aren't ready to pop for one yet. I think you would get alot of positive feedback on this! And you don't even have to give me a percentage for the idea! LOL
It would be a piece of cake to add on and I bet most people would pay a little extra for it. I will fab one up myself if nobody offers it. It would just save me grief of running to powder coaters/painters/whatever to get the thing to match. I would probably make one out of diamond plate and just keep it polished to make it simple.
What does everyone think?

They seem to hold town the wheel spray a lot too. There was a lot of water out there this weekend.

Okay, you will want to hire me after this. Love those sliders, I would love to see a couple of tabs in the front section that I could screw in a metal plate to act as a splash guard behind the front tire. Sort of like the stock plastic jobby on the TJ. Your thoughts?
Also, I would like your opinion on your frame mount. Looks good and sturdy which I like. From a design respect, any worry about extra leverage in a twisting sort of way on the frame itself. I read something about that when looking at TJ sliders and a guy attached his to the frame. A bunch of forum (so called experts) jumped all over him with those concerns. Not sure if it is a valid one or not. I hope you can shed some light on the subject for me.
Thanks for everything guys. I like what I see and am glad I waited for you guys to come out with your products! Hurry up with the full width bumper too, as that is the way I am leaning.

I'll think about the winch hole cover too. It's a good idea.

Good enough for me. Could you please repeat that into this ordinary looking fountain pen!
Thanks for all the front views too. I am rethinking this full width bumper thing. That looks really good! Any thought of a bolt on brush guard option?

It will definitely be available with at least one tube work option. It will be welded on as an option. Pics on that in a couple weeks.
