    It's ok if you hate me for cheating on you for skids but I bought your other stuff. Is the bumper compatible with RCI skids?

    I do not think so. If I recall, RCI has a lip that bends upward at the front of their skid plate. That lip causes interference with almost every bumper on the market and you will have to cut it off.

    Do you have a side shot? Does it stick out pretty far in that location? Any reason not you start the hoop lower like most other bumper manufacturers?

    Interested. 2nd Gen (2010), full hoop, black powder coated. Would compliment the sliders and rear bumper I ordered from y’all that still need to make their way to Hawaii...

    We started this thread 8 months ago and have had 0 ppl commit to the GB. So I'd say no, this is no longer active.

    everyone's "interested" in a group buy until it's time to actually sign up for one.

    Yeah I’ve seen his. I’m trying to get as close to the pelfrey look as I can. Yours and BMAF are the closes to it I’ve seen so far. Was just hoping for aluminum but it might just be steel.

    We have hybrids for both gens I’m steel. No one even wants the plate bumpers in aluminum. I doubt we’ll ever make hybrids in aluminum.

    If you haven’t heard, we are phasing out our front plate bumpers. We will be selling Demello front bumpers in the future.

    Because we don’t sell that many. Why, I don’t know. I think our 3rd gen is a great looking bumper. It takes a lot of time to setup to only run a few at a time. We sell a lot more rear bumpers. Demello doesn’t offer rear bumpers, but sells a ton of front bumpers. We made a deal to help each other out. A mutually beneficial agreement. We retain rights to our designs so depending how it goes, they may come back.

    Damn man. I'm sorry to hear that. To be honest, I didn't realize y'all sold bumpers. You're right though, I think both the 2nd and 3rd Gen bumpers look pure beef. I know that probably doesn't mean much, but it is sincere.
