Default XRAD'S Your thoughts on new TF tubular 'raid' bumpers...?

Thoughts?
I think it looks great, but maybe a bit too hardcore/modern for the disco 2......and the rear hooks around on side ready to snag something....
price for front is about $1400-1500 delivered...
anyone have some more pics of this front bumper installed?

looks like they tried to copy arb and make the approach angle worse lol. For that price I'd look tactical or RTE or an original SG (won't buy from the new SG)

Is there some concern around the new SG? I was considering swapping my arb up front for one because I bent it doing some silly stuff in Bishop a few months ago.

I just think it’s funny one of the headlights is fogged up.

The new owner is just extremely combative on the FB groups imo and I've seen some of the new stuff vs the OG and again in my opinion its not near as good. Slightly thinner material and the powerdercoating was suspect. For the money would rather buy from Simon or Tactical and just wait however long is necessary, you won't bend either of those or an OG SG lol.
