If a company made that in polyurethane ...I would dump the TTE lip in seconds. That is a really nice bumper.....

as an option, you can get the Locksmice G Crawl front bumper. It is pretty much literally the stock bumper, but solid along the bottom middle area. e.g. it doesnt have the raised centre area it just goes straight across.

it is FRP, but that is good if you want to modify it to fit some a/m foggies or something. You could effectively use it to make a similar bumper to the above. I have considered it, but just postage kills me on it :-/
