That's how I got mine, courtesy of a doe @ 45mph. I think the hardest part was finding a replacement front grill. Most of them are cracked already in the junkyards around here.

At least your ok and its not on the back of a flat bed.

The first time I went out in the snow I smashed my mom's bumper up and the 2nd time I did mine. I have learned to stay home if I can.

if i go the route of purchasing, what do you guys think? ive narrowed to either, Road armor...buckstop (classic..possibly baja)...or lastly (POSSIBLY) off road tech...they look good but im more a fan of solid bumpers as opposed to the style of ORT...but they do look pretty tough....so opinions please
