What do you need them to do? Are you needing heavy duty winches on either end? What style do you like? (desert bar, rough country, etc) Are you wanting a wrap around to protect the corners or are you wanting just a little past the edge of the lights in the front? Spot lights/light bars?

Good topic. I'm with you on this one. Personally I love the retro look from the late 80's to early 90's. The look i'm talking about is chrome tubular bumpers in the front and rear with a chrome tubular roll bar. Im building a 4x4 93 F150 and thats the look im going for. Hard part about it is finding chrome tubular bumpers for a 93 is hard!
