i rather have a steel bumper because of the durability and strength. if i had to choose. i would go with the mopar because i would know that it will fit the jl. where the other bumper might have fitment issues.

Let’s say they both fit equally

Steel molar bumpers can do more damage to your jeep than the accident itself. Get aluminum, lighter and just as strong.

I have to say though this knock of is kicking me. The price for front, rear and winch guard is $715 whereas it’s probably around $1600 OEM. I’m so afraid of the rust though. Maybe I can find a cheap powder coat guy.
