Heavy duty bumper?

Hey I've been dreading over the past couple months on which heavy duty bumper to go with and what colour. I've picked out two bumper styles. The addictive desert design the stealth front bumper and rear one to. Or the fusion front and rear bumper. Here's some links to the bumpers. The colours I have hard time deciding is either white or the colour of my trim. I'll try and put pictures of my truck up on here.

You don't say what year truck you have but the first bumper says it fits 2010-2013 while the second one says 2010-2012 and I suspect the second one is correct. The 2013 has different rads and a different intercooler mounted down low below the rads.

What are you using the truck for?
My vote color of your trim and the fusion bumpers.

While color match looks great...... for awhile, until it fades in the sun and then it sticks out like a sore thumb, there are many "shades" of black.

I've seen the Fusions firsthand and they'd get my vote. Really a contour hugging unit and nice attention to fit and finish. The one I saw was three years old and the powdercoating looked like new.

I have a fusion on mine. Great product IMO. Mine is powder coated black and looks good even though the truck is two tone.

I went with southwest fabrication out of Junction Texas, they have awesome prices and one hell of a stout bumper. My horse shoer is the one who turned them on to me and I ordered one last week should be here any day.

My vote is for the Fusions too, looks like really nice stuff. Am not really sure what colour I'd choose though.
