    Hey guys,

    Anyone have any luck finding fabricators that will build their bumpers extra wide to accommodate fiberglass, especially for the 3rd gens?

    I know C4 advertises a +3" wide option for their hybrid bumper. I figured you can probably just call fab shops and ask them if they'll accommodate, but I'm just seeing if anyone has first hand experience.

    Alternatively if anyone knows of any fabricators that advertise extra wide bumpers for 3rd gens, post up your recommendations.

    Thanks!

    SickNicksFab on instagram builds a bunch of bumpers for socal guys and you can customize it any way you want. I highly recommend him and his prices are great. If you go to his insta page theres picks of 1st, 2nd, and 3rd gens all with glass fenders that he built bumpers for as well as other brands/models.

    @454motorsports on instagram is in AZ but many people go from SoCal as his quality is incredible. The Truck Shop and JD Fab are in SoCal.
