Did you have any issues swapping out your Old Sport plastic bumper for Rubicon Steel Bumper? Simple swap with No Mods?? Your Jeep looks awesome!! Any side images you can post please. Thank you advance.
Itā€™s a simple swap. I did on mine last year. I ended up also getting the steel rock plate and also the trim piece between the bumper and the grille - however if you have a winch you wont need that trim piece.

It's been awhile since you asked and I'm sure you've seen one by now but here is mine. I had to buy the molding kit and have it painted to complete the look. Jeep is nasty because I just got back from a road trip. It's not a HUGE difference but I like it.

Yes, got it new last summer for about $850 before parts shortages and price hikes.

I think the matte grills look great with silver, gray or white colors. The matte really sets those lighter colors off. I thought about it with the Reign I ordered but decided I wanted as much of that purple to be visible as possible, especially since I didn't have the option of color-matching fenders with the Sport S...

thank youā€¦ they look great, but I keep hoping to find A ā€œno cutā€ option for the grill inserts, but they all seem to need it.

My solution may be the Quadratec J5 light bar - totally different approach/application, but no cuts.
I had the Oracle version prior and they donā€™t require cutting, however they are complete trash and will become water logged in no time. The cutting really isnā€™t a big deal, very easy to do. And you can always just replace the grille inserts if needed. Also, the Quadratec lights are plug and play when you buy their harness adapter. Super easy install.

How many people would upgrade their grill to this?
It's part number: 82215114
Only if it came with angry eyes. šŸ˜‚

If they make a grill like the 20th Anniversary concept at EJS that would swap out with a standard JL grill I would be all over it.
