Front Bumper Replacement?

[PGHChris81]

I love the protection offered from a Ranchhand, but I'm not too keen on the bulky look of it. Do they make a good solid replacement bumper that isn't overbearing in size or has the jagged angles associated with it? I wish they made something that looked factory, but a little beefier. Those stock bumpers are just too flimsy.

AEV looks like a factory option and fits like a glove, you can get it without headlight protection.

Ooh I like that one! Thank you for the suggestion!

**EDIT
That must be a prototype though because on their website they only show these for trucks up to 2018.

They are selling them on AEV complete trucks at dealers now, but claim to have them for sale soon.

why is the fit so horrible on the last photo the gap between the bumper and headlight makes it look like its a bumper off a 4th gen or something

Aftermarket Bumpers can shift and move a lot while driving, especially if they are heavy. They probably have this extra space to make sure there's no rubbing or contact with the body of the truck. I don't think it's that bad. I don't hate it.

I would guess the gap is the same across them all, that's just the only shot head on without photoshop involved.
