Nevermind I see the one I liked with the wideface. The slime line just don't seem to look right to me.

I understand the issue with the ARB crush cans (I'm living it right now) but I also don't understand companies that tout their bumpers are stronger than the frame. Wouldn't we rather replace a bumper that takes a blow for the team instead of having our frames sustain the damage?

I would, yes. Though in winching applications the bumper needs to be at least as strong as the chassis in pulling and side loading.
