    An excellent bumper for the price point and better than stock for sure! I just helped my son install one on his rig last weekend.
    Very easy to install easy to follow instructions, especially if you have the factory hitch assy installed.
    A couple of tips:
    1: pull the wire harnes through the license plate light holes, then plug lights into the harnes and insert lights into the holes.
    2.The holes for the license plate lights and the plug for the trailer lights are a bit big, allowing for quite a bit of "wiggle" room. To keep the plug and the lights from vibrating, we used some black rtv silicone on the back of them before inserting into the holes. Worked perfectly, once dried the plug and lights feel solid.
    3.The wire harness for the trailer lights is too short and no longer reaches once this bumper is installed. Looking for an extension now, otherwise we will be extending the wires soon.

    Just a heads-up, on the license plate install. You can also use plastic mollies and the old, or new hardware can be used. Thank you!

    TWO IMPORTANT TIPS:
    1. if you do have the parking sensors, put them in the bumper BEFORE installing the bumper.
    2. do a temporary removal of the tailgate to tighten the bolts that are difficult to reach.

    They failed in one little detail: they need to cut out the two hole for the factory license plate lights, for the entire assembly, no just the lights. The license plate lights will be shining upwards.

    Mine also arrived scratched up, gash on one of the hooks, the passenger side is a huge gap and not flush with the body compared to the light. Tried to realign but bolt holes do not line up or ability to set back farther. Disappointed as well with the large gap between the tailgate and bumper. No phone number to reach BodyArmor for support on these design flaws or bad batch of product

    What a load of shit. No video for the sensors. The slots for the sensors are too small. The holes need to be drilled out better. The trailer plug sticks out too far and the harness has to be pulled tight to make it plug into the outlet. No mention that I saw about BSM not working in the product description.At least it looks good and is durable...

    I just bought this bumper and waiting for the weekend to install. I noticed the trailer plug almost fell out while you were installing your license plate. Is this a problem with this bumper that you didn't want to address or no?? To thick for the retainer clips maybe? There is nothing more annoying than seeing a problem that it appears the seller is trying to avoid talking about.
