Our Dagger Series will mount on a 2012 without any modifications to the vacuum pump. The Crusader series bumpers come with a relocation bracket.

I have the JCR Crusader Stubby. Coating it wasn't bad at all. Just cleaned it (wiped it down with mineral oil), primed it, and hit it with Duplicolor bed liner in a rattle can. Easy touch up too for scuffs and I like the flat/satish finish.

Show and tell in this link. I only had to purchase 18mm deep set socket and use a breaker bar over my socket wrench. Used the project-jk website for bumper take off directions. Probably the only irritating thing is the plastic screws that secure the air dams. I just started cutting them off with shears. Install directions for the JCR are under the stubby dagger bumper in PDF.
