    Is there such a thing? So I'm replacing my front bumper but I'm in the market for a aftermarket metal bumper that dose not require any trimming. :sawzall:

    Let's just say someone backed into my truck or I rear ended someone. o_O Does it really matter??

    Can anyone recommend any bumpers??

    If you have the oem fender flares trimming is going to be required one those for any bumper.

    Pelfreybilt. Zero trimming. Well minimal trimming. I made a notch for the fogs and trimmed the fender liners. So like 8 seconds of trimming.

    Issue is that is a second gen. The stock bumper stops below the head light, the 3rd gen bumpers continue up and require cutting to get the straight seam you guys have.

    It is indeed! And yes it is easy to fit. I ended up trimming one tab on the skid plate and it bolted right up.

    So impressed with them, and they continue to surprise me. As much as I want to go to dirty fives, I may rock the pizza cutters until the day the truck is no more.
