When a pleasant individual decided to reverse into and damage my standard 2014 JK front bumper and drive off I decided to go for the aftermarket steel AEV front bumper instead of just getting a new standard front. I have just re-registered the car every year and in the last two months with absolutely no issue whatsoever from the RTA or the insurance company. The only issue I face is that I have to cover my LED light bar that I have mounted on the AEV bumper with cable ties and a bin liner until it passes the test. I do always go to the VIP lane of the test center as well, but I don’t think that makes a difference.
With regards to the weight of the bumper affecting performance I don’t feel any change, but from an off-road performance point of view I love the fact that coming off steep dunes I can rattle it off the desert floor with no concerns.
My only advice would be as someone else touched on within an earlier post go for a recommended manufacturer. There is a lot of Chinese made bumpers to purchase and in my opinion this is not the part of the car that you want to scrimp a few dirhams.
Thanks Philip this is just what I need as my Dragon Mart compressor has decide to retire from duty. The old lesson buy cheap and buy twice
Would love to make it but I have an event on in the morning. Den please keep the morning drives going :drive:
