Replacement Front Bumper
Was in the northern California last week and hit a fairly large deer with my 2017 Ford F250 KR diesel. This has adaptive cruise control (module is broken). The deer hit the left half of the bumper and did not damage the grille at all. It did push the left front fender back just a little to barely notice.
The question is should I stick with the stock replacement bumper or go for an aftermarket one that will be compatible with the adaptive cruise control module? I have a budget of about $1500 if I do want to do the aftermarket one.
What recommendations do you have for an aftermarket brand or stick with stock?

I prefer the look and protection of a full replacement bumper and grill guard.
The Ranch Hand Legend is supposedly compatible with Adaptive Cruise. I paid a tad over $1500 installed for mine after taxes.
Several companies have them advertised online for $1350 and free delivery.

I think I will go with the Road Armor ($1600) or Fab Fours ($2400) bumper. Depending on how quickly I can get it, will depend on the one I order.
Thank you everyone.

The ACC isn't in the grille, its down on the bumper area. The mesh wouldn't be in the way at all.

I ordered the Road Armor bumper with the pre-runner guard. I also got the ACC mount as well. The bumper is coming from Texas, so will not be here until middle of next week. The dealer will not start on the truck until after Nov 14th as I have a trip I need the truck for. Stay tuned! I will post some pictures after everything is installed.
