So I finally got my urban assault bumper and installed it last weekend. First I'm going to review my ordering process. I ordered this thing Feb. 14; had a great initial phone call and the knowledgeable staff helped me decide on the best options for my applications. They gave me a good price and told me to expect delivery by 5 weeks but most likely 4. I ended up getting it May 2nd which was just about twice as long as I was expecting to wait. Every time I called they (talked to Tim most of the time) were helpful letting me know where my bumper was at; I think my delay was due to the powder coating shop.
The install went smoothly. My older bumper and mounting brackets were bent on the passenger side so the bracket took some coaxing before it was straight enough to attach the new bumper too. The lights were pre-wired very nicely and added for a painless plug into the AUX switch 1. One problem was that I was missing the hardware to attach the brackets on either side of the hood latch to the painted trim above the bumper. While these brackets aren't necessary for the bumper install; they are the only things holding the painted trim to the bumper. I was also missing the mesh pieces that cover the vents on the skid plate. I contacted them and they said they'd mail em out ASAP
That being said, beside the wait time and the missing parts I am very happy with the bumper itself. It feels super sturdy compared to the stock one and it looks amazing. The squadron lights are awesome too, very bright. I recommend the urban assault to anyone looking for a stylish/ functional bumper that still maintains OEM aesthetic qualities as long as you don't need it by tomorrow
