    Does anyone happen to know the weight difference between the 3rd gen full hoop plate and high grill hoop hybrid bumpers?

    Looks wide open in front of the radar sensor. Can't imagine it being an issue. @valley_taco has it on his and I think he's said that it works fine.

    Side note - I'm getting close to pulling the trigger on a front bumper. Anyone know what the typical lead time is for them?

    I tried searching, but was only semi-successful...

    Trying to figure out the install of the swingout onto my HC rear. I found this but it's 3-4 years old and not sure if it's still the same or if it's been updated:

    Does anyone know how to get in touch with BFF? I want to get a price on a front bumper for my '18, but have emailed and called, and cannot get in touch with anyone. I guess it's time to look elsewhere

    I've done the same, to no avail. With it being such a small shop I'm guessing Billy's just overloaded.

    Don't give up. Be patient (don't blow him up) but consistent (follow up a week later). Once you get him on the phone your good. He's a great guy.

    Sorry, I just saw this because I’m rarely on TW.

    I have no issue with the bumper and TSS. It works flawlessly. No error messages whatsoever.

    When I visited Billy a few months ago, he said the best way to reach him is to call him. I think on his voicemail he specifically says to leave a message or text him at that number. He’s a busy guy inside and outside the shop so be patient. Brute Force bumpers are solid! I beat on mine all the time and they’ve held up great. IMHO, best bang for the buck out there (no pun intended).

    Agreed. Billy is a super cool and humble guy and treats his customers like friends rather than invoice numbers. I’ll vouch for a company like that any day.

    I guess I'm a lucky one. I just called and Billy picked up! Put in my order for a HC Rear, Single Swing and Sliders! Was great chatting with him. Definitely a great first impression. CAN'T WAIT. :bananadance:

    I’ve been a lazy bastard lately. Put the bumper on 2 1/2 months ago and today I finally got around to relocating the camera and wiring up the license plate lights. Just need to get a flip up bracket for the plate.
