I am curious, has anyone (more specifically Sport owners) replaced their rear bumper for a different one?

I have started searching around online for different parts to replace and I found some pretty neat looking bumpers.

Fabfours.com makes a nice looking bumper with the dual exhaust cutouts, rear park assist, and corner step cutouts.

Is replacing the bumper on the Sport worth it?

Personally I like the look of some fab bumpers but on a sport 1500 it's hard to pull it off, gonna need some wheels and a level/lift to give it that off-road look imo

Recently installed the Ranch Hand sport series (part # SBD09HBLSLE) on my '13 Express and I absolutely love it. Much stouter than the stock bumper and has cutouts for the dual exhaust, parking sensors, and corner steps.. also came with oval LED's that I have tapped into the reverse wire on the trailer wiring harness. I've since upgraded the halogen license plate lights that came with the bumper to LED's and have mounted the LED pods previously mounted to my stock bumper in similar fashion. I decided to wire the pods to a switch instead this time, so that I can use them without having to be in reverse. I highly recommend this bumper as well as all Ranch Hand products. 0a27d31933c7f4782d614d27a10e464a.jpge6002b055dc096182d12b69248eadc34.jpg9eee023283a7ddb2cefc4b0432305e0d.jpg75ed5a53d481115fe2c78b844ce641f5.jpg725cbb811e028679aadf9c30a4b83f71.jpg

I have this one sitting in a box waiting for me to install when I get home from vacation. I'll be sure to post pics when it's done.
