Stubby Front Bumper

[RedJeep78]

This looks awesome, are these the factory fogs and is that the Warn Zeon Platinum winch?

Hey thank you!
It's just a warn zeon 10s, the platinum was 500 more dollars that I didn't want to spend. The regular 10s works great.
The fog lights actually came with the bumper package that I bought from Hauk, the factory lights I had sucked.
The rear Hauk bumper also came with nice backup lights that give great visibility as well.
They aren't in that picture but I also recently put in Quake Halo headlights that I really like.

I've ordered the plastic bumper with LED lighting. Will be replacing with a stubby front but want to keep the factory fog lights. Will be running a Zeon winch. Anybody got something they love???

I’m in the same boat exactly, I really like the recessed winch mount on the LoD signature series

so the Warn Zeon Platinum winch doesn’t block air flow.
All though I really like the Poison Spyder Bruiser,

uses square fog lights in lieu of the stock lights...bummer!

I also really like this Genright aluminum bumper but they won’t put fog lights in it.

I’m also seriously considering the Hauk

I really like mine. Only complaint I have was the wait time and they may be different now.

Every time I think about doing something else one of you posts a Hauk and it brings me right back haha.

Looks badass.


I checked with them this week and they said they are at 4-6 weeks currently and feel like by June they will actually be ahead where they have inventory on the shelf.

Lol thanks. Sometimes I regret joing this forum because I see all kinds of stuff I like. Every time I think I’m done spending money on the Jeep I see something “I can’t live without” on here.

They told me the same thing. I've ordered mine 4 weeks ago. Still waiting. So we'll see if this is accurate in a couple of weeks.

I too am looking at stubby bumpers and am currently torn between the Fishbone Mako and the Smittybilt Stryker. Both accept factory fogs and appear to be pretty solid, although the Stryker is made from “3 mm deep drawn formed steel,” whatever that means (pressed?). Anybody have any experience with either one in terms of quality and ease of install. Thanks.

I ordered the Smittybilt Stryker, the bumper came wrapped in bubble wrap only and had several nicks, scratches and gouges in the powder coat to the point it need re-coated. I find out while trying to install it that the bumper is designed for the Rubicon only. I couldn't get the brackets to work with my JLU Sport frame so I had no way of reinforcing the skid plate with the supplied mount. Also my JLU Sport fog lights wouldn't mount up, when I asked smittybilt about this their response was " do you have factory LED fogs" , so I'm not sure if halogens will mount at all. Hopefully they get this fixed cause I really like the look of this bumper

Tingedrook,

Yikes!! That’s no good. I also have a Sport JLU so that looks like it’s out. I agree, too bad because I like the look of the bumper too.

I have the same question. I’ve been considering the Smittybilt xcr or the LoD front bumper. I was wondering what lic plate bracket people use on the xcr. I’m in Texas and we have to have a front license plate.

I havent upgraded my bumper yet but this LP bracket is fantastic so far.
