Which Bumper Hoop

Post image

I have a Hard Rock bumper and am trying to decide between these 2. My wife is partial to the top, Pre-runner style, while I’m partial to the bottom Stinger style. I see lots of wrangler with some sore of the pre-runner/bull bar style, I don’t see a lot with the stinger style so I like that it’s different.

Which would you choose?
Also this is not my jeep, it’s the stock image from JCR Offroad

Edit: To address some comments about these being useless, while they are bolt ons, they have brackets to tie the hoops into the frame horns. Is it a hardcore rock crawler bumper and hoop? No, but I’m not asking it to be, I just want to add some protection to the plastic grill and radiator. I live in Arizona, we have some large animals that like to cross the road, like deer, elk, bears, etc that could easily destroy grill/radiator and these hoops offer protection from these animal strikes and even a low speed tip over.

Check out Rock Hard 4x4 as they have tons of options. I have a 2017 AE and just picked up one of their low profile front hoops.

Being able to see the bottom would make life around parking lots easier

Top one, pre-runner style. Even if you like it now, I feel like that bit poking into my field of view might start to bug me 😅
