Theres quite a few brand companys outthere that make jeep bumpers the problem is theres very few importers of them so it keeps the prices very high so when they come up for sale the fetch good money
As for having one made then its down to what you call sencible money your a bit far from
Me i tend to make bumpers for my own cars then when i change sell them on ive made a few for others but they dont relise how much time/materials go into it also helps if you have an idea what you want as some like myself like working with tube and others with box and flat steel (supose its what tools you have at your disposal)
At a rough guess your going to be in the £200-250 mark for some one to make you one probs more if you wanted it powder coated

I like the look of the ARB style bumpers but with the big 'hoop' on the front Razz

I think I might just go for a set of bull bars at the moment tbh.
If anyones got any lying about Wink

I just picked up a fuel tank guard the other day for a tenner!! Bargain of the month Shocked

Hi dave, I love that bumper, but I really cant strech to £450 at the moment, thats as much as I paid for my truck Shocked

But I will be giving you a call after xmas for the rest of my lift kit - to see me up to 4.5" of lift( I got the RC 3" lift from you), I have had a new prop made fron & rear already for the lift Laughing
