Safari Gard bumpers are way over priced and neither the front or rear are made strong enough.

i doubt you'll do hard enough wheeling, but if you feel it necessary just weld some plate to the bottom to box it in. then it will be plenty strong.

I was also thinking of reinforcing The winch area with some 1/4" plate when I mount put one in.

It all depends on what you want.

There's pretty much two types Slimline (Skinny/Smaller) and other (Thicker/Bigger).

I personally like all types of bumpers.

Also is strength an issue for you?

If it is make sure it's mounted the frame and not crush cans.

For looks I like ARB and Bottorf-Fabrication.

For Strength I like Rovertym and Bottorf-Fabrication.

I don't really love tube based designs (usually slimline) I think they look cheap and that you could easily make the same thing yourself for half the price.

That's just my 2 cents.
