I have a TJM T17, same as the T15 but without the grille and headlight hoops (and bumperettes) and I'm pleased with it. The T15 and the ARB are quite comparable, it's pretty much a matter of which you like appearance-wise.

I'd get the Shrockworks bumper, better ground clearance/approach angle.

The ARB looks better with 2002+ X's, unless you put some lights on the Shrockworks, then it looks pretty good.
I would go with whichever one is cheapest, unless you care more about looks.

I called some places on Wednesday and talked about the ARB and TJM and Shockworks they all told me that the price of all the fronts are going to be going up here in a couple days or weeks.. They did find out yeat but that is what they where told....
So im really looking at getting one of the fronts on my Xterra very soon... might go to the bank and get some cash out and get one next week..
WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THE PRICE OF THESE FRONTS GOING UP>>>>

Because the price of steel has jumped incredibly in the last few months.

i have an ARB and love it. the only bad side is that you can't but an integrated solenoid winch in it... oh well...

I'm not certain, but I believe you can get an integrated-solenoid winch in the ARB or TJM bumpers, you just have to "clock" it so that the "top" of the winch points back and perhaps a bit downwards, you just have to reach up under the bumper to use the in/out/freespool lever.

I think the tubing on the Shrockworks is to thin. Of course the only reason I don't like it is the cosmetics.

Although I don't have a aftermarket bumper, I would say that the choice is yours. They all seem to be the same. I like the Shrockworks based on looks.
