No, it's not.  Go to the website.  http://www.rockymountainwesty.com/
"Call for prices" on the bumpers, tire carriers, most of the subaru

It was not my intent to imply anything underhanded was going on, and I
don't think I did.  I simply made the observation that having prices on
websites, even if you have to add a footnote about overweight shipping
etc. is more useful than omitting this information.  Here it is 7:00 on
a Saturday night, I'm not going to call them and by Monday I might have
forgotten about them or, because I have a job too, might find it
inconvenient to call.

If they are interested in having fulling informed customers, it would
help to give folks a ballpark idea of the price ($500? $1000? $1500?).
With that I could make a more informed decision about whether this is
something I want to follow up on, without taking a chance at wasting my
time (and theirs) if I can't afford it.
