Rampage Recovery Bumper
I'm running the Rampage Recovery Bumper, and I'm quite happy. It's sturdy ("heavy") as hell, and allows you to run factory fogs. They're even recessed a little bit for protection. It also comes with a winch plate, which sits on top of the bumper, rather than "inside" it. It comes in either gloss black of flat / textured black. It'll cost you about $550 - $600 (not including shipping). I like it for several reasons - it's different, and you don't see it all that much; it lines up with the front fenders (factory or after-market) giving you a little bit better protection across the front; and it adds a very distinguished "look" to the front end. Here are some pix of mine: (the most recent ones show my Warn M8000 winch setup, and there are a few older pix of just the bumper.)

I highly considered PSC for the front - I love their stinger series. However, one thing I can't get around is that I don't like how, on the PSC fronts, the winch doesn't rest down INSIDE of the bumper - it sits on top. It's just a pet peeve of mine...I want the winch to be down, recessed, out of sight a bit...not in front of the grill. Plus like I said, I'm getting the ORfab local, for a pretty decent price. So I can't pass it up, lol.
I tell you what though - I REALLY want the SPC BFH rear...I like that A LOT! I want to get some PSC on my JK bad...just have to wait it out a little, lol. I need the tramp stamp of theirs, too hehe

I did actually consider that Smittybilt. Ranked 3rd I'd say...I actually can't mention the #1 choice I had here, but the ORfab has won me over lol.
Next big thing on the list really is going to be the Smittybilt rock sliders...the XRC ones I think? Whichever version of theirs has the supports in the middle so they don't fold in when you slide over or crash down onto rocks, lol.

SRC's
I'm running the SRC's, and I love them. They only mount at the ends. I haven't beaten the hell out of them on rocks, but they look sharp and suit my needs.

I got my ORFab stinger and XRC8 on my JK the end of last week...VERY IMPRESSED with the construction of it, the finish, the structural design and everything. VERY heavy duty! I blew a front axle shaft on Saturday night though, so I'm dead in the water for now...wish I could go wheelin' and use the winch! But here's a few pics...
NOW I need some spacers up front, BAD!!!

Poison spider customs are the way to go. They have several styles of stingers on a stubby bumper most under $400
