Looks like we have an option.

Very excited, and may end up going this route.
I have built a number of coastal offroad bumpers and they are in my experience about an 80% finished product. Every single one I have done has had some issue that I had to resolve to make it a fully functioning bumper for the end user. Be it adding extra clearance so when the vehicle flexes the bumper does not hit to not being able to attach the front bolts on winch mounts on a number of them without drilling holes in the bumper for access (I believe after I mentioned it on the third one he has fixed it on most). Just be aware that there will be hiccups and you will have to modify to fit your needs.

I've only done one but I had no issues lining everything up, so maybe they've fixed whatever issues you had reported. If so thanks for making it better!

This is my exact experience with their rock sliders, Missing parts and a bit of modifying. I think they really could do a better job of figment and attention to detail. Product is good in the end just don’t expect a problem free ride. Their customer service is 50/50 as well.

I had no real issue with my front and rear. It may have had to grind a spot or two but I’m sure that was from my mishap on fitment. I think their product was great, they told you what hardware is needed that you have to procure and what is reused. I have no experience with their sliders though.
