    Hey, looking at purchasing this bumper ASAP, does anyone have a video of the install? Mostly concerned about the cuts required to have this fit correctly? Thanks!

    The post I made before yours has pictures of the cuts....

    Really easy to tell where the cuts go with a quick test fit as well.

    That seems fairly easy. Thanks, I appreciate it. I saw the C4 video on YouTube and you had to cut a few brackets and take off a another. I assumed this would be about the same. But it seems easier with you posted. Thanks!

    Do any of y’all know if the 32” single or double row lights from Cali Raised fit the BAMF hybrid bumper for the Gen 2? The specs say 30”
    Cut out, however I messaged cali raised and they believe it will fit.. thoughts?

    Anyone have a measurement on the the gap between the low bull bar and the top of the bumper? Thinking about putting some pods there.

    Side note: for anyone on the fence about this bumper or BAMF, Jerry and team have been super accommodating throughout the process. Can't recommend enough.

    Also curious if this will fit without solenoid relocation. Design is very similar to the Warn Zeon 10 which is confirmed to fit so fingers crossed.

    I’ve got a CA buddy picking this up and meeting half way in NV for a little black rock desert wheeling - hoping to do a desert install and planning ahead.

    Big thanks to Jerry and team for helping coordinate a mid-roadtrip pickup by my buddy on his way east. We met up for some bad weather wheeling. First BAMF install in the Black Rock Desert?

    Winch was absolutely necessary to get out. For those wondering about a Badlands Apex winch: I was able to keep the horizontal part of the lower grille support, but had to trim a bit out of the back edge and totally remove the section that connects to the radiator support.

    I'm about to grab an x20 10k for the bumper (on order) simply because it's one of the lighter winches I've seen @ 67lbs w/ synthetic rope. $594 is a bit painful for a Smitty, but did you have any fitment issues in the gen2 hybrid bumper? I'm hoping the gen2.5 bumper fit will be similar. @JLee

    It fit fine with plenty of space to spare. The holes in the bumper make it easy plug in the winch controller and reach the clutch handle too.

    Finally calling the front end finished. Installed some cheap but proper lights, relocated the solenoid and bedlined the body so it doesn’t show behind the tubes - was an issue with the silver. Looks sharp if I do say so myself!
