    I had the three piece on my truck too. Good enough for me. Wheeled it and bumped it on trees and rocks, never had an issue. I like the one piece design more, and it's probably more rigid - but the modularity of the 3 piece is cool. ie. if you were to bash something and dent one "wing" you could just replace it.

    That looks a lot like the Hooke Road bumper. Is that what it is?

    Going a different direction with my build now and this will be coming off when the replacement comes in, this is the first edition of this bumper (I had to notch the AC line to make the bumper work/fit good). Any in SoCal interested in buying one of these? Wanted to throw out a feeler on if any overlanders would be interested. (Please excuse the faded headlights)

    I did it. Needed a bumper out of necessity, and would rather put the money saved toward some F5’s. I really dig what some of these shops are doing, and would love to support them, but can’t justify the cost. Maybe if I was a serious off roader, or an IG douchebag.

    Just need some fogs. I think some 3.5” Amazon specials should it. White or yellow?

    Fox 2.0 suspension all around. 33 inch Kenda Klever R/T tires.
    I recently got the DV8 bumper from eBay and threw on a cheap winch and fogs. So far I’m super pumped with the setup, I’m not a serious off roader per say, but spend every weekend exploring the roads around the pnw. This setup definitely gives me more confidence in weird situations, and has worked well for recovering other vehicles so far. It was a bit of a pain to get on, not all the holes lined up very well, but with a little grinding and an extra set of hands we were able to get it mounted. I like the looks, much more aggressive than the stock rounded bumpers of this gen.

    I was looking into these again recently and I wish I bought it when it was 500 bucks. They're a grand+ now. May as well just buy it from allpro

    Based on the 8th pic of the inside of the bumper, it's the old single piece design. Which is a little surprising.
    If you buy it, make sure you can get your money back if turns out to not be true.

    even when i bought mine several years ago - they had the one-piece pictures on the listing, but it showed up in multiple pieces. best bet would be to call probably
