I run the new Body Armor Rear bumper. VERY STOUT just ask the poor Honda Civic that went under it. Some water took off the white paint. The Honda did not work so well afterwards.

By the way NO RATTLES

I like this bumper a lot as well... I'm just curious... I'm wondering how I could go about mounting the factory fog lights inside the bumper.. anyone ever see a mod like this on the bumpers that don't come equipped for factory fogs?

I like the sheet metal design for 405 + shipping. That is what I'll be picking up ASAP. When I saw that bumper from Body Armor I liked it right away.

If there is a flat area that is larger than the od of the light you could cut out holes, it would be a project if it is 3/16 thick.

The only downfall on the Body armor that I can see is that it looks like it needs a winch right away where some others look ok without.

well i do agree with that statement but whats wrong with that youll eventually get one and im in the process or you could fit alot of lights in the area. it is deff sturdy from all that i have put it through. as far as cutting holes out for the factory lights that would be one hell of a project but the rear bumper is good and the tire adjust for the jack and jerry cans but the problem ive experience with the bumper is that if your running 35's the jack doesnt fit very well.
