No link yet. This pic is from their instagram. I work with them through our OUTDOORTREE service group so I got a little insider information.

The warn bumper looks good but i went with The LOD Destroyer full width. I ordered it in bare metal and i am going to line X it instead of powder coating
Here is a photo But this is not my JL Mine is still on order

I have a JLUR and got that exact bumper. Just a warning: the LoD pictures are on a non-rubicon so the fenders are lower. On your rubicon there will be a big gap. I'm mad about this but there's nothing I can really do. It still look ok.

Well Still no sign of my Jeep, Got a little excited yesterday when my dealer said my jeep was built and on its way. Only to find out today he made a mistake and it was not mine and my Jeep. Oh well it sucks but i have to wait.
Got my 35 in Bfg K02 Mounted on my pro comp Today, But that is all for now.

Yes i must admit i was fooled by the photo on there site. and maybe i would have gone mid width but i still like the bumper
