Anyone try these sweet looking (not ADD) front/rear bumpers yet??

How many people would be legitimately interested in a group buy for the BodyGuard bumpers?

What’s the amber mount on top of the windshield?
 
Looks awesome!! Wish they had the Baja without the winch as an option.

Does anyone know how "legit" or "secure" those up front tow-hooks are? I saw some posts a while back discussing how most aftermarket bumpers these days have "superficial" tow-hooks that aren't attached to the frame in any meaningful way and therefore shouldn't be trusted in recovery situations. Any idea on how that may apply to this specific bumper? I actually really like the look of this one, but would want the tow-hooks to be legit.

are you talking about the recovery loops integrated into the BG bumper? They are like 7/8" steel loops so w/e the breaking point is on that or on multiple 3/8" grade 8 bolts (i personally upgraded to 1/2" grade 8 since the fit was perfect but the kit comes with 3/8")
 
Winch-mount ready + tons of light options + parking sensor happy + very low profile. These bad boys are gunna be on my bday or Xmas list as long as they have quick access for oil changes. Anyone try them yet??

Do you think the bull bar would impede air flow? Not sure.

Ah, didn't realize they were called recovery loops, yes, those on the front of the bumper. Sounds like upgrading to 1/2" is a mitigating step to the issue. Thanks!
 
After 1.5 years and 25k miles, we couldn't be happier with our Bodyguard front & rear bumper setup! AND we finally got a custom discount code to share with everyone!

Use code "FTR" and save a few hundo $$!!

You had some install fun with the interchiller kit and this bumper, right?

Haha heck yea but thats because we also had the behind grill lights too! The only hard part was the bull bar area - getting the grill back on was a bitch
 
Quick question, I used your posts for the swarfworks install to do my truck and it helped me then I stumbled on the bodyguard bumpers and seen you did that too 😂 my questions were, did you leave the oil cooler infront of the suspension reservoirs like swarfworks? Or does this bumper kit have a different location to install? Also for the lights did you use the Rigid ones that they sell on the bodyguard website? Or did you go with auxbeam? Thanks if you see this and reply. Also thanks on the swarfworks posts cuz that helped as well when I did it 😂
