Not bad looking bumpers. I do like the smooth finish instead of the diamond plate for sure. They look like a cross between a buckstop and a reunel. Post up some pics once you get one installed.

Boss Hogg
Put a Boss Hogg on the rear. I got it on ebay about four years ago after backing into a thin tree. The OE rear ain't worth the sweat on my buns. If you are in a salt belt state the powder coating is worthless as if the bumper gets hit with warm water from a car wash it spiders and falls off. Have the coating sand blasted off and rino line it. Mine is holding up great other than the powder coat.

Well my kids bumpers arrived but the truck is gone for awhile so they are now sitting on the ground outside, my buddy says I should install them on my truck and to heck with the kid.

I would just to see his face but I don't think they would fit my 2011. He sprang for LED's big time after using the ones on his back rack for working in the dark, he says they don't cast shadows.

Well that's a bummer that they may not fit... but it would sure be funny to see. They are definitely some nice bumpers and the LEDs make them stand out. Are they backwoods bumpers? It's been a while since I've been to their site, but they look familiar.

They are sprayed with bed liner and the idea of the LED's is not only for driving the ice roads but for working in the dark at the job sites without draining the batteries, he already has LED's on the back rack and the amperage draw is very low.

That is sure a beautiful bumper and would be something like what I would choose too. I really like the pockets for the light bars. Shipping must have been horrible to get them up here though.

Thanks Busboy. How robust are they now that you have one in your hand? Can they hold up to deer?
