Holy cra.....!!!!!!!!!! Wouldn't have believed it!! I was REALLY worried that it was not going to look GREAT but boy was I wrong!! Steve, as far a I am concerned you guys have done it again. That bumper is a work of wraught iron (steel) art! It's amazing, really nice looking and can you get it to me by Friday???

With all my other recent mods this is going to be the icing on the cake. Thanks guys!

Full width without winch plate:

Price: $695.24

Full width with winch plate:

I believe you still have to purchase the bar separately. I'm not sure of the price on that.

Sorry guys, I guess I stand alone here, I like the first edition much better, not liking this one.

thanks for bringing this up......i didnt even realize they changed the bumper.....i want the original design not the new one....if i cant get the original i am gonna scrap the idea of gettin a bumper.......

I too originally wanted the first full width bumper MBRP designed. However i would have been upset with it because I did not realize it was designed with after market fender flairs in mind. What I think MBRP did was to attempt to narrow their original design to work on a non "flaired" jk opening up a larger consumer base.

When I first started my "Jeep Thing" last February I picked up a jeep mag with a picture of the Fab Four bumper on the cover. I had to have it. I mean it was massive and it really appealed to me. Then I saw one installed at my dealers. It was mounted on an unlimited with 37" tires. It looked right but woah the whole package was HUGE! I decided right there that the FF bumper was out for my little two door.

This new MBRP bumper has the feel of the FF bumper without the bulk. I realize we all debated the location of the lights (I was one that wanted them outboard but having seen the final product I don't think that would have worked). I would have liked removeable wings but due to potential patent problems MBRP scrapped the idea. Again, real world compromise.

I stand by my original statement that this final production design is really a great looking bumper with features like enhanced tire clearance, factory fog light mounts, protection for the factory sway bar disconnect, srew pin clevis mounts and even mounts for my light bar. I can't wait to get it on my JK.

Dammit! This is what I get for being offline for the holidays. That's a sexy front. Wish I'd been around to get in on the group buy. Oh well... maybe someone will do another one soon.

?? Maybe MBRPtech1 is doing something I didn't know about but I believe the prices is what the prices is. This IS the initial offering and I don't think the prices are different than this:
Full width without winch plate:
Price: $695.24

Full width with winch plate:
Price: $725.99

I could be wrong but give Steve a call to verify.
