WizardsFirstRule People are stupid;given proper motivation,almost anyone will believe almost anything.Because people are stupid,they will believe a lie because they want to believe it's true,or because they are afraid it might be true.People’s heads are full of knowledge,facts, and beliefs,and most of it is false,yet they think it all true.People are stupid;they can only rarely tell the difference between a lie and the truth,and yet they are confident they can,and so are all the easier to fool
Great comparisons Landrover. I went with the Demello/centerhoop/powder coated/Acro lights. For the money,weight and my needs it was the one. Your sticky sure was a great help in my decision making. Been on order a week now and can't wait to get it.

I found in a CRAWL magazine that Throttle Down Kustomshas a bumper for the FJ . Magazine says prices start in the upper $800s. Jeremy Pulse from TDK told me in an email exchange that winched bumper is $999 and non winch model is $824.
Here are some details:
Quote:
TDK builds standard truck bumper designs which are all available to be customized to meet specific customer needs. The standard truck bumper has been through rigorous testing including vehicle accidents, deer impacts, and heavy towing by the optional tow hooks. The standard truck bumper design includes the standard grill guard but is available without the grill guard. The bumper replaces stock bumpers and mounts to factory drilled holes in the vehicles frame.
Options available for Standard and Custom Bumpers
* Tow Hooks
* Winch mounts or an installed winch
* Lights (inset or on grill guard) up to six lights per bumper
o Factory Lights
o 4-in PIAA — Driving or Fog
o 6-in PIAA — Driving or Fog
* Pre-runner Bar
* Receiver Hitch in Bumper
* Powder Coating
o Common colors are: Silver Vein, Textured Black, and Gloss Black
o Clear Coat can be applied over colors
o Custom colors are available
