Default To saw or not to saw..that is the question
How much are stock DII front bumpers worth? I'm trying to decide if I should take a sawsall to mine or sell it and buy a winch bumper.

I have an 03 bumper that I have listed for 450. I have gotten a couple calls about it. brand new the same one would be 800.

I'd go with a winch bumper. Just my 2 cents.

wow, I have heard rover owners on here complain about how expensive they were but I thought they were just exaggerating. If I can get $400 out of mine I would definitely sell and use the money towards a winch bumper.

Keep the stock bumper and install the hidden winch kit. Looks stealthy.

damn, I just went to take a look at it. It has a crack that goes to the right fog light housing and a sizeable piece of plastic is missing about 3" underneath the fog light.

I like the look of the hidden winch, but I recall the kit being kind of pricy just for a kit.

I just sold my stock bumper for $150. It had some cracks and some blemishes so I kept the price low.
