Thanks for the pics!

I have to say though, those welds do look a bit sloppy. They'd most likely be fine, but from a "quality if craftsmanship" view, they need a little work. If that can be corrected, I'd be in for sure.

You are of course referring to a bumper with about the same amount of material and bends/welds as an ARB that's probably handmade and half the price...

Also wonder if they would make one without all the guards?
Just the bumper with the winch setup.

I like my Terrafirma bumper but I think it is great to have some style options with reasonable prices.
