    I hope they make one like the cbi bushmaster with the side guards as an option. Seems like it'd serve me well

    I hope so too. But i hope it is nothing like a bulky CBI bumper. I do NOT like CBI bumpers. The swingout especially stick out super far for some reason.

    Again, hope they go more for what my Elite looks like..haha again, it was the best rear bumper ever i think. I do know it is supposed to be Plate, but have no idea if Tyler plans of wrap arounds.

    No i don't. Think they are shooting for summer or fall.

    I hope they do the wrap around like CBI and that's all I'd really like to see. Other than that I'm fine wth whatever.

    Odds and Ends
    Thank all of you for your input. This is obviously not a new product to the market that has not been previously available. Many of you have had good and bad experiences with armor products, those experiences are important to us from a design standpoint. We always do our best to take all of your input into consideration and put out a product that covers as many of the areas that are important to consumers.

    Lead time on the releases are not really determined at this time, we have several vehicles in the works currently. We have been slow to release new products for some time now, we have focused on streamlining production with current products to help with lead times. Our production has improved greatly as has demand.

    I will do my best to keep everyone updated as we progress. As of now our design intent is a front bumper and a rear bumper with a gate option. The rear I intend to have some side protection, that is not completely sorted out yet. I intend to keep the bedsides in tact since the departure angle on the first gens is pretty good, at least compared to the newer models.

    :popcorn:

    I made a bumper that is wrap arounds and my Elite is as well and fully plate. Should be easy for you to come up with an option like that or something similar. I agree the departure angle is pretty good and trimming isn't needed.

    Thanks for the update!
