    I would take whatever $ you would pay a body shop and invest it in a steel bumper and install it yourself. If you frequent the trails you will be glad you have some protection. BTW Good job

    Both bumpers on these things are not to be touched. If I could find a rear bumper with bsm's I'd replace both front and rear. Cheapest things on the truck.

    Only good thing about that for me was it pushed out as easy as it was pushed in. Just some boiled water to help soften a little.

    Nice bumper! I was originally going with the highline series but I rather have something with wings on the sides for added protection. May I ask, where you got this bumper and price range?

    Thanks

    I think I paid $900 for bumper and then another $300 for the stage 2 wings from Southern Style Offroad
