The Aftermarket Bumper List (JL / JLU Wrangler)

[XTrooper]

I ordered my bumpers direct from LOD offroad. I was super impressed with the packaging. The bumpers were covered in plastic, and the package was stuffed in a heavy box with foam sprayed at both ends and the middle. There was no damage to anything, not even blemish scratches.

That's great to hear. I ordered a Destroyer mid-width front bumper, front skid plate, Destroyer shorty rear bumper, and rear license plate relocation kit from them earlier this week and am looking forward to their arrival. How long did it take for you to get your bumpers after you ordered them?
Thanks!

The skid plate and license plate lights came together in a few days, the front bumper took a week. This matches exactly what they told me, The packaging was awesome, not a single scratch or blemish in the parts. The parts do not have any weld crapola or weird paint like others have mentioned with other vendors.

Outstanding! Thanks for the information, amigo!

These look great! I don’t see them on your site to order, though.

We're also planning on releasing our full width JL front bumper soon which also uses our modular attachment system (assembled from a ROAM JL Slimline Front Bumper and a set of full width fog light shrouds). Images are attached below.

I’ve been waiting about a week and a half. Ordered midwidth destroyer front bumper and skid. They said ETA late last week early this week. I don’t wait well on new parts showing up lol. Glad to hear their packaging is well done. I already looked up the installation instructions, and they are bye far some of the best I have seen.

Our Slimline Tire Carrier will be available soon: The ROAM JL Tire Carrier Rear Bumper (with a ROAM Slimline Jeep Wrangler JL Tire Carrier) includes a ROAM JL Backup Camera Relocation kit, Center Brake Light Relocation mounts, and a License Plate mount.

Forgive me, I'm new to this stuff but why does it look like it has three trailer hitches? The OEM trailer hitch is not required for this bumper?

This is literally the only reason I haven’t ordered their bumper and tire carrier. If it had one hitch, I wouldn’t be able to give my money away fast enough.

the instructions were rather good, a few things needed weren't on the instructions. So I suggest you walk through the instructions at least once to make sure you're aware of what step you're on and what step comes next. I also lined up all the hardware on to the inventory Pages they gave, and referred to the bill of material page quite often to match up the hardware to the correct numbers. All in all the install went very smoothly, and it worked really well.

Oh man... I love the look of the stamped steel, seems way more clean than the look of most custom bumpers that are just a bunch of flat plates welded at sharp angles. But I'm not sold on that bull bar design yet...

What other companies should we expect to make stamped bumpers of this style, other than AEV and the Mopar steel Rubicon bumper? ARB maybe?

The only other one I know of is the Rugged Ridge Spartacus, but I find that one to be hideous. Sadly, it still looks better than these AEV ones, but that's just my opinion.

Last weekend I installed the LOD mid width front bumper and skid plate. The install was rather easy to do due to good instructions. I was happy I could reuse the factory led fog lights, and their install only took a couple minutes.

Wow that looks great! Definitely sold me on that signature series. How hard is it to get a winch on there after the bumper is installed?

In another thread on this site, the same question was answered that it is not an issue, unless you have a Warn Zeon which needs a different winch plate.

I've done my share of bitching about Extreme Terrain, so it's only right I mention they made the effort to patch things up, so to speak. Naturally, there was the option of buying another & getting a refund on the first, but that meant removing & repackaging the first one & subsequently installing another. That was a bit much, and they offered a satisfactory refund outside their apparent standard policy.
