To Stinger or Not to Stinger...Addicted Offroad

[Zachpins34]

Nice to be back on here again. I plan on getting a tube front/rear bumper within the next few months or so.
Thinkin I'm gonna go with Scotty's from Addicted Offroad.

I plan on getting a thin flat surface plate welded on the top so there's no gap between the bumper and body,
and serves as a beer holder. Just not sure if I want the stinger or not though..

Anyone in the Bay Area have one of these bumpers? I really want to see it in person before I order it.
I've seen quite a few pics, and if anyone has any more, I'd appreciate it as well.

Love the stealth/clean/subtle look w/o the stinger.
The stinger also looks cool, but I think it looks better on rigs with bigger tires/more lift. I love the purpose it serves though, and costs $0.00 extra

hoop, < half the height of a stinger gets my vote.

I had this question too when upgrading. The he dropped the plate bumper that requires the stinger. Question answered. Plate hybrid all the way. I love my stinger by the way.

x2, plate hybrid. Tube bumpers look so "unfinished".

Stinger for sure

So true. My Buddy's tube looks way unfinished. Can't go wrong with this.

Thread needs a poll. I vote for hybrid sans a hoop or stinger.

Yeah go hybrid they look way better than a tube bumper. Im not amfan of the hoop bar at all, looks funny and gets in the way when working under the hood.
