Frontier Truck Gear bumper replacement

Installed this bumper recently as a means to protect the truck from animals when driving outside metro areas. Small investment vs. cost of striking an animal and having insurance potentially write it off...truck is worth more to me than replacement value! If anyone is considering this upgrade, bumpersuperstore has these and other bumpers at a great price as a side note.

Any rate, it's tough for sure, easy to install and fits great. Added ebay 1080W curved 32" LED light using their light mount accessory brackets with relay to high beam signal (which I used before with the OEM bumper) and set of fog lights since my truck didn't come with them but this bumper has openings for them. Fog lights run off a switch and relay harness that was included with them.

Bumper:
Original | Strong and Durable | Frontier Truck GearFrontier Truck Gear

Fog lights:
2x 4'' INCH 108W QUAD ROW CREE LED DRIVING LIGHT BAR FLOOD Offroad 4X4WD TRUCK | eBay

Light Bar:
32'' INCH 1080W QUAD ROW OSRAM CURVED LED LIGHT BAR COMBO Offroad 4X4WD TRUCK 40 | eBay

Very sharp!

Get a couple of serrated skewers and you won't even have to stop, just pick your route carefully and take venison home for dinner

What do you think of the 6000-6500k LEDs?

Is there an option to turn on only some of the LEDs?

I've been looking for a light bar for some time and really like how yours fits and looks, you've done a really nice job there

Tenderized venison is good with me!

They're very white in appearance and as little as I use them I'm fine with it. They contrast against the yellow appearing Hella 100W headlight bulbs I run.

With the light bar, all the LED's turn on/off together. The 32" curved fits very well with the OEM bumper contour too.

Mmm...venison

Glad they are white, not that dark blue/purple

The curve fits the oem bumpers? Cool!

I am considering either a single long bar like yours, or tow smaller bars with one for low/fog use and one for "Make it Like Daylight Mode" driving on the back roads.

My budget is getting sucked into a camper, so I want to avoid a do-over

I appreciate the info and your rig looks awesome!
