At least the Base guys can easily add fog lights based on this picture.

Sorry people but I don't get it ? Out of all the Bronco pictures that have been published on this site I have only seen TWO bumpers. They might go by different names but only TWO bumpers have been published on this sight. Can some one down load pictures of Three different 2021 Ford Bronco bumpers. Thank you.

There have been 4 variations published. Three look similar if you aren’t looking close.

Pay attention to the exposed shackles on the front.

Standard:

Ford Bronco 2021 Bronco Bumpers Explained -- Standard vs Heavy Duty Modular vs Capable Bumper B2196FBF-8C2C-4C31-985D-9E42007D7A54

Standard with fogs:

Capable:

Modular (with bull bar):

The exposed shackle location is actually the front of the frame and where the winch attaches to, hence the modular or capable bumper being required to mount the factory winch:

The standard bumpers do not have these locations exposed, and instead have a smaller D ring mounted lower down

Thank you for the pics and detail. I now understand. I guess I did not count modifying the same bumper would count as a different class of bumper. I get it now. Thanks again.

I don't get why this is a big deal. The B&P has many things that are not immediately available so this isn't shocking news.

The Capable was always a no-go in the first place because it clearly was not in the same category as the HD which meant that it was an "after-the-fact" add on that the dealer would have to install (and possibly at an extra cost). Would anyone really have wanted to buy that bumper and have their Bronco sitting at the dealer while they get around to installing it? Besides, it has the same crap Winch setup as the HD.

Now if the Capable was like Jeeps Steal Bumper group that got you not only a Steal Front, but a Steal back AND the bumper included the hidden winch cradle like Jeep does, then I could see it.

I'm hoping that Aftermarket comes up with a Winch Cradle that can attach to the Bronco regardless of which bumper you got since the Recovery\D Hooks are where you would want to mount it anyway.
what makes you think the capable bumper is DIO? it wasn't in the accessories section of the BNP

This clears up some confusion for me. Don't know why Capable front bumper was even on B&P then ?‍♂

BN: We currently see three options scattered across build and price. In the Bronco Build and Price tool there are three bumpers: the standard bumper, the Heavy Duty Modular Bumper, and the Capable Bumper.
  • The Standard Bumper is plastic and is the default bumper for Base, Big Bend, Outer Banks, and Wild Track. It includes tow hooks that can be used for flat towing and can have fog lights installed as part of the Big Bend equipment group so you'd also see those on the Outer Banks and Wildtrack.

  • The Heavy Duty Modular Bumper is standard on Black Diamond, Badlands, and First Edition. It has a slew of features and is a required add for the brush guard and front steel bash plate options. Also, if you plan to order a winch from the factory, you'll be getting this bumper added to your order. If you're ordering a Big Bend, Outer Banks, or Wildtrack and want to bring your own foglamps since it will not include the foglamps that come with those trims, this the option to get.

  • We've confirmed with Ford that the Capable Front Bumper that you see in the Base, Big Bend, Outer Banks, and Wildtrack accessory options in the Bronco Build and Price tool has been listed in error and is not available as a 2021MY option.?‍♂
So, I'm confused (like many here, it appears). Does the Wildtrak bumper (the Standard bumper) COME with fog lights standard?

No different from the other 200 missing accessories.
If the bronco is ordered with the modular bumper, what is put on it at the time it
is built? The modular has a cost of $825.00. Also is any credit for the standard bumper?

If you order the modular bumper, and it is available at time of build, it will be put on your Bronco and is shipped with it, not later. The $825 price is the upgrade cost from the standard bumper, there are never "credits" shown for what you don't get, just the upgrade price for what you do get.
