## Description

No other bumper can give your Jeep this many looks. Modular design provides dozens of different looks and styles. You can build the exact bumper of your choice! Each component maximizes the oversized look of the vehicle. All components are constructed of heavy-duty textured black powder coated steel with a tough E-Coat under-coating. This tough finishes will provide years of heavy-duty use.

Review: Purchased with bumper - I bought the the tire carrier & the bumper and this combination is NO joke. Heavy duty and I'm hoping that for the long-term they're worth the $1.300 paid in total for both. I'm a little concerned with a part on the tire carrier, that when closing/closed it rubs the paint and presses against the tailgate when latched. The jeep is a frame off restoration with new heavy duty bushing which may cause the bumper to ride closer to the jeep than it otherwise might so I can't blame this all on the tire carrier.
Review: deceptive, misleading - This is ONLY a tire carrier, the pictures and add are very deceptive. if your looking for a bumper this isn't it, that's an additional $600. and then some assembly required to bolt them together.
