Baja Desins and Diode Dynamics will set you back over $800. Please direct us to a will fit mod bumper for price DD wants just for brackets ($120) We are not all off roading but do want a pair, just one pair will do of FOG lamps. I don't need 6 lamps, only 2.
When I research Baja Designs I was pretty sure there 2 light solutions for under $400.

I found the modular bumper to be one of the best OEM bumpers I've ever seen on a vehicle. Meanwhile, the plastic one is perhaps the worst.

Considering the cost of the aftermarket bumpers AND bash plates ... I'm quite happy with the bumper.

Brush guard is so-so .... maybe skip that next time if the aftermarket comes up with something stronger.

This is a good one too, maybe 2nd in the running if I were to change out bumpers, the winch access is good. But the intercooler and radar blockage, and lost approach angle is a concern, and the branding is really, really loud.

It looks like Ford will have lights to fit in the corners if you look at the latest Raptor Bronco it has two fog/spot lights. hopefully the cost will be less than 1000 bucks :oops: ...for me the steel bumper looks the best and is not Jeep looking I'm not fan of plastic!
Good catch! This reinforces my choice of the modular bumper. I was starting to get worried as I couldn't find any quality lights that fit IN the bumper rather than behind it, where the available kits are located.

I converted to 22 MY BD and am keeping the modular bumper. I think style wise, it looks trim and a lot less blocky then the capable. you can always add fog lamps. just my opinion. everyone has their own style in mind.

Iā€™m gonna go mod bumper so I can shift to crawler, lock the front and rear lockers, and push double parked cars into one spot or the other at the mall. Talk about off road adventure. And yes, I know, pictures or it didnā€™t happen šŸ˜

I like the modular bumper. I have Diode Dynamics SAE Fog ($120) mounted with the included brackets. I also fabbed up a simple flat bar bracket for a "dune flag", using the Bronco bolts for mounting a flag. I don't like the winch mount options for the modular bumper so far, so I may eventually replace it, but for now, it's better than the plastic bumper for my uses.





You can mount your Bronco flag there haha.

This is the direction I plan on going eventually.

I guess Iā€™m going capable. I didnā€™t realize until after I ordered the 2022 BL that it changed. I havenā€™t seen any of them in person but prefer the modular bumpers aesthetic. Factory fog lights are cool though.
