    The SOS does look good. Hoping it would work with a TRD Pro skid plate.

    Yep. Most shops make them.

    OP if you look at the SSO page they have a few pics with the pro skid plate and bumper combined.

    I had one and got rid of it. An SSO bumper is on the way.

    Note how much taler the Relentless bumper is; this requires completely cutting away the black plastic that goes from one side of the truck to the other. As a result, the two remaining pieces of that plastic (to the inside of the fog lights) lose an important part of their support, and remain held in place by only a few clips. Wind resistance constantly makes them come loose, and this was driving my OCD up the wall.

    The SSO bumper is not as tall, resulting in more of the plastic being left in place and maintaining most of the original rigidity/support. And it flows much nicer with the body lines IMO.

    WARN released their version of the bumper as well which has no plastic trimming! Dunno if they offer it without the large hoop though. I like the sso hoop.

    Very happy with Mine, which used to be someone else’s. thanks again here4cake!

    Also like it is there and most people don’t realize it’s there. Less attention is always better.

    Appreciate all the feedback. Thinking i may order the sso bumper with no hoop or light bar opening. One thing I wish you could get an aluminum version to save on weight. The steel version may push me into getting 5100's and going up one notch. Don't really want a lift for cornering but don't want to go down any either.
