Jim are you talking about the Projektzwo bumpers? I have
just bought similar ones from Volks Cafe:

http://volkscafe.com/bigbumpers.html

The Volks Cafe bumpers are priced much more reasonable than
the Projektzwo ones, though you don't get the funky diamond
plate top. The advantage is you get an integrated 2"
receiver hitch. I had a front 2" receiver added as well. You
can see the Projektzwo ones at:

And another similar design (including a neat side bar) at:
