I've been through this. Wench or no wench?

The duff one you posted is about as clean as it gets. To think out of the box email John at Icon Bronco or Jason at BC Broncos. Enjoy the journey.

If you plan on using a winch do not do a hidden winch. Great if you don't use it and want to look cool with the hook hanging out. If you use one it will get tangled and hung up. Then you need a pry bar to untangle and make it work. You don't want to lay on your back in mud and snow under bronco trying to untangle

So I decided to keep the impact bumpers. I sanded them down, primed, and then finished them with the same liner I used on the tub. They look epic. I’ll upload all the details on my build thread, but here’s a few photos. It took a while we had a few delays but all in all I’m happy how they turned out.

*the rough cut for the LED bar was just for fitting. It’s cleaned up. :)

My main concern with these bumpers was that they’re too big. I thought they’d make the car lose some of that short stumpy look. Actually, these bumpers give it even a more stumpy look because of the way they wrap around the body, like they’re giving the bronco a hug. Also the way it’s cut, with the 45 degree line coming up from the bottom I think goes really nice with the lift, it adds the illusion of even more lift.

i really like the hanson bumpers but their customer service reviews scare me away
Here are my original Hanson bumpers. Way before they came powder coated.

Integrated fairlead mount, tow shackle d-ring mounts, and a Proto Fab cam lock spare tire mount with tapered bearings!
