Thing is, until she wheeled it, she was estimating. Now she has some experience with it (potato salad hill is not a just backyard obstacle).
The rest of us are all just looking at photo's.
I have been supportive of these mods from the beginning. Donkey Kong called me a dumbass for the same conclusions about that bumper that you're making. We must both be dumbasses. The guy behind DK was attempting to make a legitimate argument about overhang.
I just wanted her perspective, now that she had some off road time with it on a big f*ckin rock. Photos were taken to show approach and departure angles. Bebe addressed the issue here, before she had the chance to wheel it. Now she has.
We both read the threads, maybe some others did too. Maybe it is a consideration and maybe not, I would like to know what she thinks. Not to give her sh!t or to kiss her ass. Mostly because I'm about to hang a winch out in front of my front bumper too. Nothing wrong with truth.

Ok, here are my observations....

He was trying to argue approach angle at first until I pointed out the difference between approach and overhang. Therefore, there was nothing "legitimate" about it.
There is more overhang as stated, however, the new height of the overhang, negates any approach angle loss. It's strictly a visual perception. I did not hit at all in Moab.

I am very impressed with the esthetics, and design. It is very well thought out., and incredibly functional.
I was speaking with someone on the phone a couple of weeks ago, and yes, I will need to turn my torsion bars again to recover some of the height I have lost from the 250lbs. of weight hanging off the front.
Other than that, only time and wheeling will tell. So far, perfect.

Kissing my ass is required for all n00bs.
