Anyone install the Spartacus Front Bumper with winch plate on the JL ? Do it yourself or have a shop do it.

Wrangler bumpers are probably the easiest thing you can do. Literally all hardware is exposed and easily accessed. No need to bring it to a shop

I just ordered one as well. My only question is switching over the LED fog lights. It is simple?
I think it depends if you have the right brackets if needed. The fog lights mount differently depending on the light type. If you have what they need or the bumper was made for same lights then you should not have an issue.

I think its only moving the existing lights. Maybe light wiring extension that I think comes with the kit.

Then I'm adding the Warn 8000lb winch. Those are very easy to hook up.

I got it just under the wire for the 200$ rebate. After rebate I got it (with winch plate) for 609$. 809$ then a 200$ rebate. Only good on purchases until January 31, 2019.

If you have the plastic bumper with LEDs, it's a pain in the ass removing the fogs/wiring

100% accurate. I swapped out my fog light bezels and the process sucked. I am going to take the plastic bumper apart for tow hooks and fog lights. Once I do that, I am going to junk the plastic bumper.

I'm looking at this now- hows everyone feel about the quality of the steel? will it scratch easily? did anyone get the bumper bar and does it interfere with the front cam. Lastly- can you use a magnet license plate holder you think? I only ask as I cross the border a lot into Baja and need it for Sentri Lane. Thanks a lot!
