If Jeep and OEMs refuse to make and bars, I say we get some Fabtecs on this and get a great looking prototype then do a group bulk buy. Boat welders custom make stuff all the time, along with all the SoCal desert runner guys. I'm sure if we have 30 guys wanting a bull bar or grill guard they could come up with something.

I say Screw Mopar, their late to their own party. We do not need them to give us offroad parts. **** some of the nicest bars I've seen were custom. If we get a few people that can agree on a design we can have a Fab shop make it right.

The roof rack on this Titan was 100% custom I talked to the guy that made it a few years ago, he could custom make it and sell it for 1k, and thats alot more welds than alittle front grill guard!

there will be aftermarket stuff, just have to wait. or go custom.

I read somewhere from them that Jeep actually gave them a new KL. However I can't find that statement and I thought it was from RR's website.

 

[clew]

yeah, i saw that too, cant remember where though (looked for it)

I might have to attempt a little fabrication this spring. It looks like a guy could make up some brackets that attach with the tow hooks fairly easily, then its just a matter of taste and talent with the bar design.

amen brother!

Here's what they emailed to me on 12/21/13

Thanks for your interest. Jeep is actually giving us a vehicle which we are going to use for design and prototype on some cool Cherokee upgrades. We should have these coming available in March. Keep a watch out.
Thanks!

Anybody use a trailer hitch a rear bumper protector? What do you recommend? Maybe something with some horizontal length to help guard the sensors?

Well it's been a year and no grill guards are in production that I could find.
and just one (3inch stainless tube bull bar offered out of China....forget it.
Did anyone out there make it to the SEMA show in Vegas last month?
Was there any buzz about an aftermarket offering?

RRO makes brush guard/bull bar.

Looks like we'll have a few more options soon:

From RRO the other day

"The bumper kits are specifically for the Trailhawk at this time.
Keep an eye on our website. We do hope to have a kit available for the non-Trailhawl models in the next month or two."
