Cool, I will buy 10 of them, take pictures of them on the shelf and show people what I have. My life will be justified then.

Funny thing about those OG pressed bumper, from what I was told, they were the cheapest crappiest bumpers ever, as to why they changed. ISP's actually look thicker then the OG ones, maybe they'll hold up better aswell. Pressed's are not for me, my single isn't old enough for them Laughing Laughing

They have had them for a long time but I think they sere out of stock for a while?

I have heard they are thinner than stock but haven't had one side by side to compare.

It is hard to believe that they can have thinner metal than stock ones. Shocked That is shocking.

They are also straight across the back, do not have the curve as OG ones have, unless they changed them. I haven't had any since BUG-In 32.

But they are steel and have brackets and pans. Better then nothing if you need one
