One of the few front bumpers, on any of the vehicles I've owned, that I am seriously considering.

I like the look of the factory Raptor bumper, but this is a good looking bumper, especially without the lightbar.
(I have my reasons for the lightbar hate and it mostly stems from the idiots out here that have them)

I have no use for a winch, at the moment, but it's nice to have that option available.

Bumper ordered!

Couple questions:
  1. Thoughts on best size of winch 10 vs 12k? What's on the test truck
  2. Looks like it comes with the skid as well?
  3. How long will this take to install with 2 competent people?
  4. Was the test truck level led? If so what height to account for the added weigh?

Thanks for the order!

1. We opted for the 10k as we feel it is sufficient for this size truck.
2. The bumper is designed to work with the factory skid plate. The lower portion surrounding the new recovery points is included.
3. If you are not factoring in wiring of auxiliary lights I would say 3-4 hours. Our install took approximately half a day but that included pics, measurements, documentation etc.
4. Our truck has a 2” leveling kit on the front. We didn’t notice much of a change with the bumper/winch.

It''s so tempting to pull the trigger.

I need a front plate in my State, so I'd have to find a decent Fairlead license plate mount and I want the fog-lights/driving lights I choose to be plug-n-play. So there would be a few things to look into on my end, before taking the plunge.

If you don’t use the upper light bar, will a stock front license plate bracket still work?
