Love the look, but not the practicality.
For the real world I think we (I) need the corner protection.
Keep the lower part as is; move the upper main tube out to allow the wrap around the corner ( no loss of ground clearance)
For daily driving the spare has to fit in the OEM location.
Give me that and I guaranty I will buy it!
I hear ya loud and clear Arno, but somewhere in this world right now there is a guy who is going to the grocery store in a Ferarri, not because it's the most practical car on the planet, but rather because it gets the blood flowing when he or she drives it. That was the approach we are shooting for with this bumper. It gives you rear end protection (all-be-it not as much as our original Rear Baja), the ability to tow, and a step for being able to reach in the bed when needed. But ultimately this one is more about looks and emotion than raw practicality. Besides, how often are you really hitting the far rear quarter panels of the truck anyway in all the years you've owned it?
With that said, I am in no way opposed to possibly looking at making a Baja V3 version similar to what you have described down the road, it might look just as good. It's really just a matter of changing up the plate work but keeping the tubes the same. As Jeff said, we just need a few more days to finalize some of the crucial parts such as license plate location, license plate lighting and a couple other misc items.
Also, a spare tire should fit just fine with the way we designed the bumper. Mounting location is no different than our hide a hitch that we have been running on the original Baja. Just to be safe, we will throw a spare under Jeff's truck tomorrow.

I think that's the best rear bumper I've seen. Will the backup sensors be worked into this version? ( a girl tends to drive mine, so they are kind of mandatory)
Ferraris are lame...
