Aftermarket bumper for the 1500

[Shawn226]

i am just curious if anyone has come across any bumpers for the 1500 that’s kind of minimal in the ways of change (not a Baja style, but not HD either). Ultimately what I’d love is a 2500 swap, however that’s more fabrication that I’d rather not delve into anytime soon. So far I haven’t found anything that I’m really thinking of, so figured id see if any of y’all have?

I guess I should add I’m looking for something that doenst weigh a lot, because although it might take me a while, I plan to make this ecodiesel a fast MF’er, so that’s why I’d like as light as possible if I were to go aftermarket

Check out magnum ICI. I was looking for one that didn't look like a fat lip for a bumper.

Only thing is their coating sucks. Just be advised you may want to get it recoated after a while.

Does your current rear bumper have cut outs for dual exhaust and backup sensors? If it does... I call dibs and send me pictures of what you want and I'll help you hurry up... I mean... I'll help you find what your looking for! LMAO!

The 1500 bumper up front has always kind of looked dorky to me..

I would love to see a MAGNUM PR SERIES FRONT BUMPER from magnum ICI if anyone has one on a 1500...

Yes I do have the duals with sensors in the back. It is chrome colored though. But will gladly get rid of it once I do delete it, I want to switch to a single side exit pipe at that point

What’s the weight on that?

Little over 100#. Was able to pick it up and move it around myself so it's not too heavy.

Just know that fitment on them is either hit or miss. I've seen them on other 1500's where they mount flush with the fenders and then you have mine.

It's almost like they made it 2 inches too wide. It sticks out on either side.

Would you feel confident drilling holes in it? I don't want to lose my sensors and finding a bumper that has inlets for the sensors is damn near impossible.

I'm pretty sure you can get it with holes for the sensors. If not, ya it would be easy to drill through and run the wiring.

Consider it purchased! thanks for the help!

Just to help you out a little more, here's a direct link. You CAN get it with sensor holes already drilled
