    Ok thanks. I’m looking at it but twice the price. The Apogee does have blind spot monitoring compatibility so that’s something to consider.

    Sensors are meh. BSM's are the ones I'm waiting on.

    It looks like those hinge pockets would be big enough for the BSM sensors but if you do the swing outs then you'd lose them.

    Cool looking concept though. Really like how it's all modular too.

    The product overview does mention it's compatible with blind spot sensors. I think the end caps may be a plastic material since they look different from the rest of the bumper.

    I need to replace my stock bumper, ripped off a corner piece and the BSM mount out wheeling. Really want to maintain my BSM and sensors but it looks like there’s only two options, Apogee and now this. I want one that give a little more clearance. Seems the wait continues.

    My bumpers are still intact but agree, I want the bsm and hope for a high clearance version with swing outs.

    Why does "Off Road" have BSM?

    I support local shops. 90% of the job done on mine are local. Wish more options were offered.

    Spoke to a rep and they do say BSM compatible. I read the overview as well and missed it last time but yeah good to go on BSM.

    Most shops stopped offering an option because no one bought them.

    Apogee and 4WP are pretty new in comparison coming out with their product years after the others stopped.

    I considered shooting some rust paint on my (Body Armour) rear bumper before I installed it. Started rusting first winter, especially the hardware. It came black coated, so I assumed it wouldn't rust. Highly recommend anyone living where steel rusts easily, to paint before installing it. I had to do it backwards...
