Default 7.5+ Front Bumper Replacements

i hit a convience store today and did a bit of damage to my front bumper. i did not plan on putting aftermarket front bumpers on this truck but i did say that if i dammage one i would replace it with one. my questoin is what options are out there for the LMMs. i like Frontier Truck Gear because i have heard they very light but just as strong as a pipe bumper, but i don't know about price.

i need some advice as to what my options are. so post some pics of your front bumper replacements, different options, and prices

It looks like the Frontier really hugs the front grill, i wouldn't buy that kind IMO

I dont think your planning on adding a winch so fab-fours are out of the question

I like the Road Armour bumpers, IIRC you can get them at 4 wheel parts,

The ali-arc's are not very strong. I have a custom one on my Chevy, the Herd on my Dodge is twice as stout. Either bumper will keep most animals from making your truck immobile. If you want to run into buildings or cars without damage, you need a very heavy duty steel bumper.

I would be happy to post pics of my bumpers, if someone can explain to me how to resize them easily. When I take a picture with my camera it makes the pics to big to post.
