Deciding between DV8 and LOD

21-0 and you go with option C. Why post a thread/poll in the first place?

I found one on eBay with warranty and after speaking with the seller he guarantees everything and has a no hassle return... As does eBay.

Good luck. Can’t wait to hear how this one turns out.

Sorry all. Was not my intention but decided away from the stubby look.

Post some pictures when you get it mounted up. Sometimes it’s nice to stray away from what everyone else does.

I will have my. LOD for sale as soon as AEV offers theirs. I love it, but want the rear bumper to match the front and AEV has what I want in the rear.

Installing the stock fog lights in the LOD bumper took less than five minutes, getting them out of the stock plastic bumper took about an hour.

thanks!!

Curious as to how that Ebay bumper is working out for you. Any pictures?

Haven't been able to pull the trigger yet.

I have the fs-15 and had zero issues with the install. It came packaged well and had a great finish. I liked this style the most

You didn’t have any issues? Did you use the DV8 skid plate? I just tried install this week. The bumper bolts did not line up and holes had to be widened. Then the vertical support inside the center of the bumper hit the skid plate before the bumper was fully seated on the mounting frame. If I tighten down the bolts I will damage the skid plate. DV8 has offered me the brackets and no charge so I will be trying that to see if it solves my problem.

I didn’t get a photo when it was all on as I ended up taking the skid plate off for now and just installing the bumper. I will try the brackets when they come and hope that works. I love the bumper look and the finish was great. Well except for where the bumper support hit the skid plate. Will need to touch it up. It seems well made but unfortunately more for the JK.

I didn’t get the skid. We’re moving to roam for everything and I’m pulling this bumper in favor of their AL pioneer front. Hopefully you can get it all straightened out with them.

I just went with the LoD Signature shorty. I ordered through Quadratec and it took about 6 weeks to go show up but it installed with no issues. The quality seems great and my the welds look good to my untrained eye.

This is the truth. Them damn retaining clips on the inside plastic bumper had me
