Default Aftermarket Front Bumpers

Looking to replace my stock front bumper. Its all black with no foglights. Looking at maybe a stainless steel one, but not sure what the options are for bumpers. I'd like to get some more clearance under the bumper, so something that doesn't hang as low would be great. What do you guys use, how much did it run you, and where did you get it? Thanks.

Eagle, why stainless steel, will you be running a winch and do you currently have a lift? If you are still stock, many of the aftermarket bumpers will lower your approach angle even more with their weight.

Mike, I'm not lifted yet, but I will be sometime in the next few months, before the summer. I got all my 60k service done, am waiting on getting my rebuilt prop shafts back (i bought some used ones so I can keept driving my truck while they get rebuilt), and now I'm looking at doing some mods (already have the CDL installed, SS brakes lines, and D1 wiper arms). My bumper is a mess right now from snow banks and other drivers, so I'd thought I would start there. What other options are there for bumpers other than stainless, and what are the pros/cons of the various materials? Thanks.

everything is steel and powdercoated. never seen a stainless bumper.

you have box construction or DOM tube.

ARB, RTE, Equipe, Terrafirma, HLC, Rockstar, start looking at those.
