My opinion on the bumpers is to ditch the ones you have currently. I'm a fan of big black beefy bumpers on lifted rigs and all, but not the round bar type you currently have...just a little outdated. Your cheapest bet would be going to a set of sport (stock chrome) bumpers all around, but if you plan on doing some heavy wheelin with the rig they won't provide any protection...but you'd look damn good doin it! Haha...

Going overboard is REALLY easy with any project so it's good idea to start a written plan taking care of the necessities 1st, but the important part is sticking to it. A safe/functional rig is more important than one that booms and shines bright, and a rig that's running is more fun that one that's in pieces in the garage (trust me on the pieces in the garage part...it's been over a year since I've been able to drive mine and I was just supposed to slap on some air bags).
