Hi,
I can’t seem to find a concrete answer to this. I want the badlands that comes with the powder coated steel bumpers, but I want to add the modular front bumper. If I add the modular bumper, do I still get to keep the rear PC steel bumper, or does adding the modular front bumper automatically add the plastic rear bumper?

If I add the modular bumper, do I still get to keep the rear PC steel bumper, YES

or does adding the modular front bumper automatically add the plastic rear bumper? NO, why would it? It comes stock with metal unless you change it somehow, and i don't think you even have that option

I wasn’t in sure. Sometimes changes make things default to something one wasn’t expecting.I was looking to verify it didn’t knock me back to a Base rear bumper for some reason. Thank you.

@Lifeliberty is correct.

Also worth noting that the rear powder-coated steel bumper still has a lot of plastic trim pieces on it. So if you are expecting a solid rear bumper, you won’t get it from the factory.

Are there two OEM rear bumper options? Basic plastic (Base, OBX) and partial steel/plastic on BD,BL and Wildtrack?

Pretty sure WT is plastic too. BD, BL and HE's get the steel rear bumpers.

Has anyone tried to brace up the factory steel rear bumper? The JL's had similar issue and there were some brackets you could get to stiffen up the corners and keep them from flexing up into the body).
