Looking for an aftermarket bumper for an XJ
« on: July 17, 2006, 11:16:06 PM »
I want to get some sort of bumper for my 98 XJ, stock one isn't cutting it. All I can find in Calgary is an ARB winch bumper for $1300  :x Nice bumper, but I can't spend that much on one. Looking for something a little more affordable.

 Does anyone know of any other places/stores in the calgary area I could find one? Or anyone that fabricates them. If so pics would be AWESOME. Thanx.

Shipping was about $65 to an address I have in Idaho. He prefers not to ship to Canada, as it can be alot of hassle (understandable)
