Let’s talk about bumpers

[BroncoFanBoy]

What do you guys think about the bumper options? Do people want the modular steel or don’t really care about it?

I will have to see them in person. On my FJ I ran an ARB up front and an Expedition-1 in the rear. It will likely take the aftermarket a year or so to catch up with Bronco parts.

Looks like for the modular ford will sell various add on bars and stuff for protection, lights, looks... I do like the look and flexibility of it

Steel is good, but aftermarket will be better.

As long as Ford was forward looking enough to develop a winch plate that bolts in there and hides/recesses the winch, I'm good with the factory bumper. If their solution is to leave it hanging in the wind on top like the version we have seen, it's a huge disappointment and the entire thing is getting sold to fund a real bumper.

I like the ones that have been shown with the Warn winch.. It will allow me to mount a loud and proud Warn 8274-70.

Depends on the price for me.

I love the look of the bumper on the yellow bronco from the video with the led bar on it and color matched tow hooks ?

Why do they call it "modular"? We are talking about a winch bumper w/D ring mounts? Yes I need that! Need D ring mounts in rear too! Hope that's a package deal!

Probably has to sit on top so the winch won't block the intercooler

When I read “modular” I imagine the off road bumpers that you can unbolt and remove the end caps for improved approach angles (to the sides).

That's at least because the ends can be removed.

OK...that's cool, but it does have a winch plate and D ring mounts no? Need somebody to translate the "fordspeak"
