I plan to go with Ranch Hand because I like the full coverage bumper replacement and need a winch mount.

I met a guy locally in a little country grocery store parking lot who has a full bumper replacement and had it sprayed by Line X and they installed it too. It looked great.

I will have mine sprayed too.

Center grill protection and the headlight bars provide good coverage for those buzzards trying a fast low horizontal take off...lol.....
It also is setup for front camera if you have it and adaptive steering or whatever its called.

I went with a Cattleman brush guard. I really like how the contour lines match up. Coating has held up well for 3 years!

How much are you guys paying to have your bumpers sprayed with Line-X?

Line-X is bedliner. It's not a corrosion protectant by any means.

You would really want to blast off the original paint and reprime and seal the metal before applying the bedliner if you want to mitigate corrosion.

I was looking into a ranch hand and called my local line x dealer. I was quoted $350-400 for sandblast, prep and spray on a legend bullnose bumper. Was told the full grill guard bumpers run $450-500.

The biggest Ranch Hand bumper replacement is $1650. I won’t pay $350-$400 to have it refinished.

I will look into these other brands.

Thanks guys for letting me join the party!

Check out Setina. They make the pushbars and grille guards for police vehicles, and they make them for the Superduty as well. Headlight guards are an option you can choose that bolt onto the main vertical section:

I believe Y2KW57 has this on his truck:
