Default New rear bumper needed

2013 F150 Lariat 4x4 Super Crew.



Tan rear bumper getting rusty on inside and leading edges. Now ran it into the dock and missing some paint.

Figured for the cost of repair, might as well look at a bolt on.



All have positive and negative reviews, but no real discussion or reasons.



Anyone have recs for the below? Or others?



Would like to not go to tactical, rugged, off road, crazy, type of look. I like the idea of the lights even though I'm not sure if they are designed for reverse or a switch.



leaning towards this but not sure if the paint is good quality

I looked at the same seller and then searched on here and found some really bad reviews. after a little google-fu i found this one:

essentially the same thing but they gave me a deal on it when i called and it was cheaper than your links. ended up buying the same type for the front as well and i'm very happy.

I've bought from American Trucks and had ZERO problems. Everything arrived quickly. I had an item with a cracked light and they fixed the problem immediately.
I've got this rear bumper from them and it works great. It is a heavy beast compared to the OEM and I like the toe holds on each side. It's best to have some help to install it although I managed to do it alone.

looks like the one I am going to order.

barricade extreme heavy-duty rear bumper with LED fog lights. What did you wire the lights to? Reverse or separate switch?

Unless you're hell bent on getting an aftermarket bumper, why not just get a new OEM rear? MBI Auto sells painted to match rear bumpers for $460. You send them your truck details/color and they paint it and ship to you.

I'm using a separate switch but you could easily wire it to back-up lights since it comes with its own relay.
