Different Willys front bumper designs?

[JoeBanks]

My 2021 Willys Sport did not come with those things…..if it did I was ready to cut them off when I got it home.

Same here. I got mine last week and it doesn’t have the euro filler.
Mine also came with BFG KM2s instead of the white-lettered Firestones. I like the BFGs a lot better. ?

I love that, great color!

I can't find it, but I read somewhere that the "Mold–in–Color Bumper with Gloss Black" was an option in 2020 but became standard in 2021.

My 2021 didn't have the Euro style closeouts new.

Now it doesn't even have the same bumper! :D I did re-purpose the lower brush guard and the metal support behind it.

Definitely seems like they changed it over for the 2021 model year. What bumper is that by the way?

That is a Rough Country #10596. I chose it for the option to use OEM fogs, the steel construction, provisions for D-ring mounting and the integrated light bar.

Hi everyone, had a 2022 Sport Altitude ordered, but having second thoughts now and going to go with a Willys. However as I see different posts some Willys (not the sport) have the “euro” fender close outs and some do not. Some also have a normal sport looking bumper and some have a bit of a different design.

Anyone insight would be very helpful. Maybe a model year difference?

With Euro closeout

Without Euro closeout, and black surrounds around the fog lights

I would say that the Red Willys in the pic is not a Willys model from the factory. Too many added features that are not correct, black grill is not painted correctly, plus hood has black paint on the front and hood decal added, bumper is the standard front bumper with mud shields on the sides by the fenders, plus the shock looks black and should be red like the Rubicon ones. I would say the tires and wheels are correct, but they were probably purchase as takeoff's.

Both the Willys Sport and the Willys models are the exactly the same as equipped from the factory, biggest difference is the electronic package is standard on the Willys.
