I am looking for a nice bumper with a hitch to go with my savvy stubby front bumper. i currently have a stock rear bumper.

What do you guys recommend for high quality nice looking rear bumpers?, i have heard some people mention dirt worxx

What is your goal? If you want just a good solid bumper with a hitch, the dirt worx is great. If you want low profile that won't drag wheeling, you might be looking for other options.

Honestly just want a good looking bumper haha. I know looks are subjective but i plan on leaving the jeep mostly stock and don't plan on doing heavy off reading.

Yeah, heavy reading can be dangerous. LOL

Warn, DirtWorx, even Smittybilt makes a lower profile bumper with hitch receiver in the sub $200 range that is decent.

What are your plans for the hitch?
Most aftermarket bumpers aren't rated for towing.

As @LONGJP2 said most of these are NOT rated for a trailer. You said you want to tow a small trailer so it matters. I decided to keep my stock rear and added a traditional tow bar. It may not have the "looks"...but it is rated to tow more than the jeep can.....

Just because the company doesn't want to take responsibility for it, doesn't mean you can't tow with it. I've towed with mine plenty. Even if the bumper was rated for towing, you'd get blamed if there was ever an issue. 🤫
