Judging from the fact that you are from Ontario and if you use a body shop that the dealerships use it will probably hover around the 2-3.5 grand mark with work.

If you are going to get a deer bar get a full bumper replacement unit. Otherwise it won't fully protect the truck or if its flimsy it will cause more damage then without it if it gets pushed into the truck.

nope, it's an aliarc bumper.

i'd go with an iron cross personally. they've got a sexier look.


I've got a hidden winch mounted, and a front 2" hitch receiver.
talk about additional meat to keep that frame straight if it happens.

I got a call today from the insurance adjuster. The truck needed $4300 in parts and $1100 in labor to repair. If the air bags had have went off they might have written it off. Just thinking.
