Darren and I had our bumpers made together so they are identical twins. He has a bunch of great pics on his site here. The only difference is how we have our license plates mounted. I have an aluminum plate-bracket from Slee Offroad that attaches to the lugnuts securing the spare. I also have 2 Lite-N-Boltz wired up to light up the plate at night.

That is one nice bumper... but, for not having a vehicle for a week and having it cost almost as much as an S/C, kinda takes away from it a bit. But if your in CO, then all the power to ya!

as I do alot of traveling to surf and always have boards in my car I am not going to mount the spare off the rear bumper or anything, I have a full size spare in the back of my truck which I throw on the top rack sometimes
for now the front bumper will remain stock, I think once I do a lift and the rear bumper, and custome sliders.... I may consider fabbing a front receiver/winch/bumper combo
note sure yet, the front bumper for now is part of my roof rack so would have to fab one up to do the same as the stock one

The man makes a good point...
Espcially since its a brushguard. I'd want something a little more sturdy out front if thats whats holding a piece of metal that goes all the way up my rig. It looks like there is a descent amount of space, but in an accident, that space gets cut down quick...
BigHead has a TJM T15 out front... same as mine
