This article provides some pointers and instructions from vendors whose products require the removal and replacement of the bumper cover.
Washer Bottle Replacement 7/30/05 Stars5.gif (1046 bytes)
When replacing or modifying the front bumper, sometimes it is necessary to reposition the windshield washer bottle. This thread on lostkjs.com offers a solution.
ECB Nudge Bars, etc. 10/29/05 Stars5.gif (1046 bytes)
This is an Australian company that makes a bunch of different nudge bars for the KJ. No online pricing, and I would imagine that shipping to the US would be a bear.

KJ Komodo Dragon Rear Bumper By Rock Lizard Fabrication 3/7/07 Stars5.gif (1046 bytes) Write Review
"It isn't called the Komodo Dragon for nothing. This beast is the ultimate in rear armor. The bumper itself is made of 3/16" formed plate steel for extra strength. Bumpers come standard with 3/4" thick shackle tabs tied directly into the frame mounting brackets, and an integrated hitch receiver that gains 4" of clearance over the factory hitch."

Sundance Customs Front Bumper By Sundance Customs 12/31/07 Stars5.gif (1046 bytes) Write Review
LOST member JSCRASH (Jason) has created a great new front bumper for '02-'04 and '05-'07 model KJs. Highlights:
  • No washer bottle relocation required.
  • Use stock turn signals.
  • Integrated fog/driving light mounts. They protect your lights and look really cool.
  • Stinger can have light tabs, too.
  • Fabricated mostly of 3/16" steel (some 1/8" in accents) - VERY strong.
  • Wicked cool power plug for winch, jumper cables, or whatever.

Detours KJ Backbone By Detours Manufacturing, LLC 1/1/08 Stars5.gif (1046 bytes) Write Review
Detours is very happy to introduce a new concept in front recovery for your KJ. We call it The BackBone Bumper System, in other words, it gives your rig the BackBone it takes for winch mounting and recovery. Fabricated & formed from 5/16" steel plate, your winch will rest firm and secure on its platform complete with fare-lead mount. Below that, there are two 3/4" thick 'D' ring mounting areas welded into place for recovery.

More information here.
