Looks like it has a front skid plate too.

man it would look so much better without that plastic 'H' between the grille and the skid plate.

Hell yeah! That would save me the time to figure out how to get the steps.

You can darn well bet, it wasn't towed by a Lightning!

Separate bumper on Raptor only?

Separate bumper on Raptor only?

Yes because of the way the Raptor has the dual exhaust set up.

Come on Ford, get an event scheduled already. Provide some further details so I can determine if I am keeping on my short list or not.

Yeah I agree. Some sort of tease or anything would be nice. I just feel like they are purposely playing this safe to avoid having to announce a delay on top of all the other issues they seem to be having.

I'm in the same boat. I wish they would announce it so I can determine whether it's worth waiting for or if I should get one of the GM twins instead. I'd rather have the RRaptor but if it's going to end up the same price as the BRaptor then I'm out.

I can’t agree with you more!!! Looks like a cheap add-on trying to look like a push bar. Just over-styled garbage! Adding a horizontal color matched strip between the grill and bumper (like the Raptor) would easily remedy this flawed design. Maybe some hope for the Tremor?

Hopefully the Tremor will also have a separate bumper with color matched horizontal piece between the grill and bumper too?

That front end looks hideous, with the black plastic overlay going in different directions, also the gray skid plate looks 'stuck on' just to busy imo not a clean design.

 

[DHH]

If they keep that, I'll definitely be getting one of the twins instead. That is one fugly front end.

I was waiting for someone else to ask, but it's not happening. How does the exhaust affect the front bumper?

That confused me at first read too. Upon further review I think the topics of rear steps w/Raptor bumper and exhaust got mixed in with the subject of the ugly front end treatment. So REAR bumper on Raptor must be different to accommodate dual exhausts at the expense of side steps - but still no solution for hideous Front end. Of course I could be wrong...
