no way should you buy a stock bumper. it will get hit and crack again and youll be in the same position.

Not to threadjack, but what front bumper is on this G4?
Is that just a winch with a special cover on it?

Hard Labor Creek makes some bad *** bumpers, give them a call and tell them what you are looking for. I bought my ARB because I figured it will break again if I put factory back on. FYI Wilson is a really awesome guy and is very reasonable in price so keep his number because if you own a Disco you will need parts. here is a link to a factory one on ebay for $499

I wonder if those guys buy cores... I just sent them an e-mail.

well as you are not going to be major offroading I'd buy as inexpensive offroad bumper you can get. maybe the terrafirma or one of the others the guys list above. a used on ewould be ideal. go look at the front of the truck and see for yourself what is vulnerable. you may need a combo of bumper and light guards, etc. to get the protection you need.

i'm in the same situation. i took off all the plastic, spray painted it black and am waiting on a bumper op. in the meantime my wife hit it and knocked out the front directional.

shipping kills everyone on these ite,s but especially me.

good luck.
