I have worked with Expedition One folks and they are great. I would also recommend Phil at Trail duty as a vendor. He can order from manufacturers and usually get a better price. No experience with Road Armor but it doesn't sound good.

I went with the Expedition One (great folks and customer service BTW) full width and I love it.... until I got rid of the stock fenders. Now my front bumper doesn't look right IMO so I am going to have Geo chop it down to a stubby. Could have saved some bucks and went with a stubby from GO. I was dead set on a full width and back then I am pretty sure I would not be talked out of it.... live and learn.

I'd suggest a modular full width, or something like what I have that wont look silly if you decide you want a stubby and cut the wings off..... Just my .02

i can make yours look like that...........

I know this my friend....

It never ends...... or at least I don't see an end to it from where I am standing....

That is the funniest thing that I have heard all day!

That is bad ass, so many decisions, choices..................really, though does it ever end? [/quote]

I keep threatning to get my own damn welding setup, but by the time I setup 220v at my house, make sure it's all to code in case we sell, then try and find a small amount of steel, blah blah blah...it ends up less expensive just having it built, I think, not positive and I'm not rich so I just have to take my time. I desperately need a rear bumper/tire carrier right now and want to donate my Shrockworks to Holly's JK and build my own front with a pissed off looking hoop...found one somewhere online that just looks sick, has a hoop and follows the grill lines/headlights and has this angled down pissed off look to it... ...rant off...[/quote]

Post of a pic of the "pissed off" looking bumper/grille guard. That is what I want. I think that 1st pic I posted from, oh I forget the name, Off Road Armor, that's it I think-----------is mean "pissed off" looking and I'm trying my damnest not to go for it. If I did I would go through the Ebay merchant, he has assured me he has them in stock, they are NOT defective rejects, blah, blah, blah. Said he would work with me if there is a problem. Told him if there is ANY problem, there would be NO ORDER/SALE----he' seemed to understand that, and seemed like he'd like to work something out, who knows. I would just use a CC and dispute purchase, if any probelm arise, and let the credit card company deal with it.

Anyone is SA want to make some $$ and fab me a bumper or at least a grille guard for a full width bumper. I'd much rather pay one of you guys than give my $$$ to someone else. Just remember, I'm, very very, picky...............about my jeep,................ or bitchy, yeah that sounds more like me

Just get some electrical and cross it on your head lights lol.

Guess I just don't get the whole "pissed off" look thing.

uup4it gets my drift...

hawkman lemme find a pic of what I'm talking about, I've been trying to find this front bumper again for sometime now, just the angles of the tubing/etc that gave it an aggressive look is all. I'll post up when I find the pic.

is it this one?
