    I'm looking at getting a new front bumper, but I don't want to chop up my factory plastic. I like the idea of being able to go back to factory.

    Does anyone know of a front bumper that is bolt on with no trimming?

    Get one that goes up to the fender line(fab fours and C4 IIRC) that way you remove the entire bumper without cutting. They don’t look as good a slim bumper with the stock one cut IMO.good luck

    I’m running the C4 frame brackets on another brand bumper and they work fine together. The brackets are BEFFY.

    The C4 Fabrication Overland is a clean bumper. Fits the lines nicely. If you have the flares, they need to be cut at the fender line. You'll also need to trim the wheelwell liner. Installation is easy. Going back factory wouldn't be bad - probably replace the flares and be good to go.
