Which Front Winch Bumper?

[myhichevy4x4]

Ok been looking at front bumpers for my truggy build. The existing bumper and winch are huge and I want to get something more compact. Edit: I will be getting rid of the worm drive Ramsey and replacing it with a 10k Smittybilt I already have.



I also would like to have the bumper before finalize trimming the front fenders so the lines all match. I really love the ORD bumpers and I am most likely going to order one of the two styles:

Full Wing





My only concern it how far it seems to stick out and if I could trim enough fender. On the plus side it would be very easy to tie the exo into the bumper.

My personal favoirte the low profile guard:





I could always add a grille hoop to tie the exo into later.

What do you guys think Full wing or low profile?

If you have an ORD bumper post pics of either style.

Are you getting a different winch? I don't see how you can have a "compact" bumper with that thing. For that matter, there really is no compact winch bumper currently offered, so you have to build your own. So I assume you only care about approach angle and compactness at the corners, otherwise you could look into the Twizted cradle (or whatever it's called) and finishing the corners yourself.

for as much as I absolutely love the old tube on Willard, mine has a similar look, I despise the newer one that goes around the lights..

it may be functional, but it looks like cr@p...

I should have mentioned that I am getting rid of that winch. It is extremely heavy and slow. I have a Smittybilt 10k for the new bumper.
