Who wants an offroad bumper!?!

[West Mi Mudder]

I am in a class called Entrepreneurship 350. The first day of class, we were asked to come up with a company we would like to start, or a product we would like to invent. I am not very creative, so i decided to start a fabrication/offroad supply vendor, creating offroad bumpers such as TAG.

So i want to know, how many people would buy an Offroad bumper, and how much would you pay?

Well that all depends what style bumper...

Winch bumper
Non winch bumper
Pre-runner style
Tube bumper
Shorty bumper
Etc......



THEN there's the addons.

Shackle/d-ring mounts or no
Stinger or non
Extra gussets or no
Frame mount extensions/reinforcements or no
Painted or not
Powder coated or not
Etc......


There is always more to it then, would you buy an off road bumper and how much would you pay..... Just something to think about.

With the question as asked if one needed one it would/could range anywhere between a simple 200.00 shorty(just room for a winch) and a 800.00 full every option style bumper.

Yeah, i had a huge paragraph wrote, but deleted it for simplicity. When asking price, i would like to know what you would pay, for one that is set up perfect like you want.

ANother thing to take into consideration, is reputation and customer service. TAG has great prices, but the customer service, quality, and repuation of the comparny aren't all there. Lets say you were 100% satisfied with the transaction. Bumper was flawless, shipping was quick, and you fell like you paid a fair price.

From a guy that spent many years in to Jeeps, I would offer a built bumper........and a precut unwelded bumper.

Some Jeep companies do this with success because there are so many DIY guys. I see the same thing happening here. That way you can build some prototypes and templates and have some pricing options as well.


Sorry for the weird first post. I have been lurking for a while now.

That is a great idea, and i have seen it done before. One company about an hour from my house does this, but they are strictly Jeep.
