Factory bumper mods

Yeah if I don't buy a different bumper, I plan to do this mod here, chop it close or flush with those front rubber bumpers.

Any ideas for the rear? Not sure what could really be done with it...

I too am eager to see anything that others have done for the rear. I took off the jugs, but now I think it looks kind of goofy, sticking straight out the back, with no angles to it and not wrapping around the tub at all.
 
I would have made my bumper look like yours had it not been crushed when I hit a deer.
I love this look! Very well executed too, great job!
Well, I love the whole color scheme of your rig!

Me as well. I'm currently debating if I want to stick with the hitch & bumper, or upgrade to hitch/bumper combo, like the Garvin I have on my TJ.

I know all the real rock-crawlers on the forum will judge me for this, but I wish someone made some better-looking end caps or milk jugs, that gave the rear bumper some angled ends or something.

Actually they do, they're an angled rubber ends, not caps.
I had these on the front and rear before I replaced my bumpers.
Still got em.
See?

8" cut from either side. Its lightweight, its cheap, its functional (look at the lip/crossmember underneath), and works
