I like the first one, wish I could get one like that and throw away my stock one.

Here's mine that my kid and I built. I wanted heavy duty and flat on the bottom so I could use the hi-lift jack when needed. I also made the tow eyes part of the mounting arms.

I believe the 3rd pic down is a standard ARB front bumper.  You can pick it up at http://www.lowrangeoffroad.com/suzuki/samurai/front-bumpers/suzuki-samurai-arb-bull-bar-arb3424010.html (http://www.lowrangeoffroad.com/suzuki/samurai/front-bumpers/suzuki-samurai-arb-bull-bar-arb3424010.html)

The bumper on top is just square stock.  We used 2x4 steel to extend the frame 4" then just welded it together then mounted the turn signals up in the grill.  There isn't much that can affect it.  :)

accept he doesnt have the exo cage. tais is pretty sweet. I love tai's sami sure wish he would give in and trade me. There is a kid that lives a few houses down from tai that has a similar blue one too. This picture really makes me wish I had a bender and welder to make an exo cage for my little sami.
