that isn't a bad bumper lets you keep your lights and has recovery points, what more do you need. and it lets you save $300 over the TF that could be used for the front bumper or a winch

Show him mln01's bumper install thread. Just because it's from a mfg doesn't mean it's flawless.
When I have more time I'll show you a link about Ford weld quality you can show him.

I was actually about to send him the link to that since he was looking at getting the terrafirma.. If I can hear back from Greg I may invest in his or maybe even tactical rovers

Here's the promised link on quality of welds at a major manufacturer.
MIG, Defective Welds, Bad Welding, Recalls,Trucks, Ford, Automotive
Although this is about robotic welds, it shows that a welder in their garage isn't necessarily worse than a company making a product.
