Hi Everyone,
2014 JK 2 door
Looking to replace stock front/rear bumpers. I like old school textured tubular ones. anyone have them installed on their Jeep?
looking for pros and cons.

and what about fog light, skid plate, cover plate, recovery hook, and license plate ( required front plate in CT )

and pictures would be great.

Thanks
Curt
 
Personally I think tube bumpers are about the ugliest thing ever made. However, it is your Jeep, so all that matters is that you like them.

The other disadvantage I see with tube bumpers is it's going to be more difficult to find one that has a provision for a winch.
 
FWIW my buddy had a set of Smittybilt tube bumpers on his . Rusted out inside of 3yrs. Damn things would also dent if you looked at them wrong .
 
Ok Thanks
My parents had a CJ7 renegade that had tube bars on it and they were great hit deer and everything else bars were rock solid. i guess they don't make them like they use to.
