Fitted a new rear bar and tyre carrier today. Highlights my non existent mud flaps though. I'll have to do something about that now.

Looks great, is that a modular bar so you can take the wings off?

Also a lot cheaper and lighter than a steel bull bar
Nice job mate.

Well, its nice to see they did fit.....I was sure they would.
If you want an American spec bumper, I doubt any authority here would know it wasn't the original bumper. I know a guy who regularly ships from LA to Sydney, sea freight containers......you pay the customs fee and freight...if your value is less than $1000, you don't pay GST or Duty. Stock bumpers must be cheap as chips in the US. If it's 2nd hand, there may be an AQIS fee.....though how cool would a new Rubicon X front bumper be?



Let me know if I can help

Yes, that's exactly what it is. You can take them of, change them to shorter or lighter ones and you can replace the hoop with a stingray pointy piece of steel. Build quality is really good. I'll do a write-up here this weekend with more pictures.
