Rear Bumper Options

Frostbite · Jan 11, 2018

I am getting tired of my snow flap getting pinned tightly against my rear bumper every time I seem to get stuck. I was looking for a bumper that has the handle area raised so I can get a hold of it when stuck. What rear bumpers have you found to work the best?

Here are a couple options I have found:

Most of these bumpers do not have the raised handle I am looking for. I am looking for something like this for the Proclimb.

What are your thoughts?

Wow! Those are sweet, thanks for sharing.

I was hoping there were a few bumpers I hadn't found.

My thoughts are this

I've had one on my 2016 since new. The raised handle is awesome. Because it's REALLY raised. It also has another bar down where the stock bumper is. The reinforcement is way burlier than the AC ones you linked. It goes all the way to and under the running boards.

some better pics (and pricing) here

I will give these guys credit their bumpers are pretty damn solid. I plan on buying one when I upgrade mine

Now the Backwoods BMP is what I am talking about but, I would like it in black or orange.

However, I just did the BMP skinny boards and I am wondering if they would be compatible with each other?

I also like the Cat Mountain Bumper however, I don't really need or want the integral vertical rack mounts that are part of the bumper.

Thanks for the great ideas guys, I just knew that had to be more options out there.

UPDATE: I just ordered a black Backwoods BMP bumper. Thanks for the great ideas.

Keep the options coming, I am sure someone else will be looking for one in future.

Me neither. Took me about two minutes to remedy

That backwoods one looks sick.

I have a Skinz on the 2014 and a Pro Mtn on the 2018. Both work well and also reinforce the tunnel. I think that is more important on the 2018 as they reduced the gauge of the metal they are using.

Frostbite · Jan 12, 2018

The Skins looks great too.

I can't figure out the price?

kidwoo · Jan 12, 2018

It's a secret!

Just like when your order will show up from skinz this year.

I just ordered the skinz mtn flap, seems like a decent alternative, 60 bucks for a piece of plastic is expensive.

This is the flap I’d order. It’s true identity is masked...hahaha!!!

I don't know how we got to snow flaps from rear bumpers but I guess they are neighbors. This is the one I have used for a couple seasons and I couldn't be happier. There is a shorter hard plastic layer under the snow flap so it can't get sucked into the track when using reverse in the deep stuff.

Just take the flap off, all it does is drag in the snow anyway.:face-icon-small-hap

that looks good. i was picturing your problem with the bumper being the stock shovel flap. not as much room to get hands in there. i can see them fancy aftermarket bumpers handy for guys who get stuck a lot:face-icon-small-ton
