    We have been drooling over this thing for the past couple of years at SEMA waiting for it to come out. I have personally crawled all over this thing and it is AWESOME. Definitely a departure from normal ARB styling, but we are liking it over here for sure.

    Now that is one good looking piece of steel! No turning back once you put that thing on.

    I don’t have the formal weight yet, but I do have a “few” dealer details. All the shipping boxes combined come out to 230lbs. My guess is that there’s probably a little lumber in that calculation as well. I can get some cleaner details tomorrow as well.

    I'm waiting to see what Cali Raised brings to the table. They are working on a Gen 3 bumper. I need to look around town and see who has experience cutting up the bumper to install an aftermarket one. I'd be worried about cutting to much off.

    Bah! You can do it. It's always the first cut that's scary.
    Now that you say that... I feel like the water looks over-embellished to me. I also might be losing my mind though. I have seen this bumper in person though, and it looks really good.

    Side note - The internet is just full of AI slop now. It's so gross.

    does the bumper help off-roading at all since 3" lifts don't? HEHE:D

    I’d really like a heavy duty bumper but prefer one that isn’t off road focused, meaning more coverage of the front tires and mechanicals. I drive dirt roads and daily the truck and just prefer more a standardized bumper. Still looking but this one is very cool.

    I do like how this bumper covers a good portion of the ridiculous Gen 3 grille.

    Looks like it might even take a Bambi strike without destroying the front end.

    Odd why they would call out a 20mm gap to be made, also would this work on the heritage or other trim level grills

    Lot of off road bumpers add some gap so when there is left to right flex, the bumper doesn't damage body panels/trim. Few of the 2.5 gen bumpers have a gap between the bumper and the trim piece under our headlights for this reason. Without the gap it's likely the fender flair would be popped off when the truck flexes.

    20mm of flex at the front bumper, the front body all rolls together no? This gap is not required on the OEM, why did it get invented here is my only question

    will Baja Design LP4's fit in that lighting area ? wish they'd stayed a bit more true to the ARB typical design and add some Bambi protection, or at least an option .....but it's on my shortlist for the Pro.....nice angles and like that they factored in clean protected air for the Ic's.....
