    Pretty awesome idea I love the idea. Still low pro and follows the lines nicely.

    Well I already have the slimline so looks like they are gonna get more of my money as soon as available. Hopefully the wings will be available in bare metal like my bumper was. I like being able to touch them up with a rattle can. If anyone is on the fence, it's not a big deal to cut the plastic and install. They have very good instructions and the quality is top of the line.

    I hear you. However, I wasn't trying to suggest increasing the angle of the side extensions. I was saying that if they were going to make a solid one piece bumper, that decreasing the angle of the bend on the main body to match the lines of the "side pieces" might possibly look more cohesive. But, I am not a fabricator, and I realize that what I am suggesting might not be at all feasible

    Anyone run this bumper with RCI skids? Do they work together?

    Yes. I do. It works fine. It doesn't interfere with the crossmember that all skids bolt to.

    This is what I’m hoping for as well. It would be better as a single unit.

    Tell this to Pelfrey customers who gave there money and didn't worry about lead times...

    That design looks amazing and would be even better as a one-piece design. Please do a one-piece!

    I can't wait for pricing. Looking to get one of your Slimline bumpers right now. This is even better!

    Personally I would rather that angle stay the same because it keeps the cut line lower. If it went up to match that I think it would be too close to the fog lights and I love that you get to keep the stock fogs with the line they have. I don’t think you can change the bend of the front bumper either because then it screws up those dimensions. I agree it would be amazing if those lined up, but I don’t think it is possible without sacrificing something else. I am down for a day 1 deposit if they do a one piece though.

    I'm still not even sure I know what is off but regardless I think it looks better than any other bumper out there that I've seen.

    I like that phrase...I'm down for a day 1 deposit for a one piece as well.

    Oh this is by far the best looking bumper to me. I really wish I knew what the timeframe they are thinking about possibly doing a 1 piece because if it is years down the road I will just get this one and hope I can line it up to be as flush as possible.

    If 1 piece is a ways off, you may also be able to find a good welding shop to fill in the seams and blend it back to look like a 1 piece unit. Of course you'd have to re-paint/coat

    Yeah I was thinking of that too. I might just get the raw pieces and have someone blend and paint it all to make it look like 1 piece. Might have to ask around and get a quote for that type of work.
