My factory bumper has seen better days, bent and rusted out.
I've been searching for a good replacement for about a year and really there is not a lot of options for an MJ so I went with the FEY bumper.
I bought it from Summit Racing and might have been able to find it a little cheaper somewhere else but I've used Summit for years with great results and got free shipping!

The old tired bumper

Old and tired vs young and sexy!

With the FEY bumpers you also have to buy their mounting kit.
The bumpers are a universal style and the brackets are vehicle specific.
Here's what they look like.

Overall it was an easy install, looks good and I can pull a trailer again.
My only complaint is FEY Automotive can't spell Comanche.
This is their directions

Looks pretty nice. The fact they cannot spell "Comanche" is extremely annoying!!
