Aftermarket bumper with Lux…anyone yet?

[goalie]

A lot of the aftermarket stuff is super angular. The one on my JK is very angular like RTR one and it looks good on a JK, but the Bronco's body lines are much softer overall and I think it looks so much better with a less angular bumper. RRO has something coming that looks softer but I dont see the ACC cutout/relocate so that may not work.

I hate the way this bumper looks. Actually, let me correct that…I hate the light bar part of it. Every thing else is doable IMO. And definitely like the sun at grill guards look, but just not this one. Too boxy.

And, I noticed your screen name starts with AZ. Does that mean you live in Arizona? Because I’m from Arizna as well, N. Phoenix to be exact.

I agree. If they had a version without the light bar/grill guard, it might work for me.

And yes, I am in Maricopa AZ (south of Phx).

I believe the ARB offerings are compatible.

Fair enough. Hopefully they at least respond.

I heard back from Warn. No go on the ACC sensor….

“Hello Matt,
Warn's bumpers will work with the factory parking sensors however the adaptive cruise control would need to be disabled by Ford. I've attached the install instructions above if you would like to look them over.

I'd be interested in this as well, none of the ones I've seen so far will work with ACC, they all block that little black box. Maybe it can be relocated into a bumper? Will need to be recalibrated if you move it, which might not be possible. Same for relocating the camera onto or into the bumper, that will mess with the 360 degree view.

Hopefully some smart design engineer will hop onto this potential gold mine and develop one!

I grabbed a screen shot off the Warn site. Maybe the little cut out under the winch in the middle is big enough? I have no idea and will for sure post on here if/when they respond. Because the bumper is really good looking and I’d buy it for sure if it does work. Just nothing mentioned on their site about it working with the Lux. They just say “sensors”. Kind of a generic description. I’ll let ya know what I hear.

Definately not.. the cutout is pointed down... not in line with the acc sensor..

I just l heard back from Warm (see post above). This bumper definitely doesn’t work with the ACC.

These don’t work with any parking sensors or the ACC sensor.

Where exactly is the sensor positioned?

I find it a bit odd it is so low, the other two cars we have with ACC have sensors on the windshield and not behind the grill/bumper.

It’s below towards the bottom. No idea why.

What about RTR's bumper. Not released as they are still adjusting, but looks like they left space for the ACC to spot car in front.

Maybe. But now we’re back to blocking the camera. And I don’t see any parking sensors on this bumper.
