Sorry, I'm saying I don't see the justification for the $2,700 price tag even after seeing the real photo of the bumper.

Original design or copy cat ones?

I would say all this shit right here is where the cost adds up:
You gotta be smokin that good shit to over design something this hard.
And hey, people with money to spend are into the look and added wear plates.
I would say at 2700, they prolly have 40% margin on that.

I had to investigate, damn OCD.
It's a lego bumper 6 sections: center section, corner ends, aluminum skid for the center section, aluminum skids for the corners.
If you need to protect the thing you bought for your Jeep to protect your Jeep...?
If you bought the parts separately you save $100 lol

$1889 right now. Not $2700.I like the looks of it. It's clean and tight to the body. It has corner protection built in. It has skid plates for the bottom of the bumper to prevent hanging up on things.
But $2700 for 3/16" steel bumper that is smaller than less expensive bumpers????

I remember a long time ago when the first dive computer came out…it was large and clunky, and very expensive…I thought that no one was going to buy these things…ten years later, practically no one would dive without one.
I remember having a discussion while working on a dive film in Eniwetok Atoll “why no one made diving regulators out of titanium”, to which I replied “it is difficult to machine, and very expensive “…many years later, I was teaching repair seminars for a company that built the first titanium regulator for their dealer base in the Pacific Rim…they still sell an updated variation of that regulator today…
