From: 2nd star to the right, and straight on 'til morning
Default Any issues with WSP and stubby bumpers?

I installed the poison spyder brawler light, mid width stubby.

The bumper does not extend past the grill, I think the rcw calls for the bumper to go to the center of the front tires.

Any drama with the local law enforcement types?

I really like the bumper, and intend to run it, but was wondering if any of you have had problems.


Thanks!

Nah, don't sweat it... You are more likely to get a ticket for mud flaps

I have the Brawler Lite on my Jeep and have been pulled over a few times for no mud flaps but not once has the officer mentioned anything about the front bumper.

I run the same bumper without a front license plate and never had an issue with the Staters. I usually have terrible luck with them too, for example a speeding ticket for going 65mph in a 60mph zone

I've got the XHD and have never had any issues with LEO.

As long as you have your front License plate on, they'll leave you alone.

EVO 1/4 Pounder here. Can't get much more stubby. LOL. No issues with WSP or local PD.

Definitely run a front plate though, and not in the windshield; that pisses them off.
