I was going to go 1'' BL but then will have gap between bumper and frame which i believe may be more noticeable

It's, way easier to relocate the rear bumper with the 1.25" than with the 1", plus you can't go wrong on that extra .25" for tire clearance on the trail

I went with the 1.25 and it is fine. I made some new brackets and just moved it up , looks stock. Go for it.
