Think I decided to go with this one. It has the styling of the FX2, and I get to retain my tow hooks! Also am going to install the FX2 grille as well. What do you think?

I thought you said you wanted a bumper cover?!?

I'm not sure, but I don't think that's a cover. It looks like a whole new bumper w/ a different valence. Same goes for the FX2... I don't think that uses a cover either.

You are right, this is a replacement rather than a cover. Saw this on Trucks! this past weekend and it looked great. I thought that I saw a roush replacement bumper that was all fiberglass. You are right, this one isn't it.

It's not SO stock any more... Leveled the front out. Need to update the pics.


Being that this a 4x4, I want it to look like one. Alot of aftermarket bumpers and bumper covers have a 'tuner' look to them. This bunch seems to be the closest to what I like, and what would look good 'slightly' lifted off the ground. Gonna go with 33'' meats and 20" rims next year. That is all of the lift that my truck will be seeing. I like all the opinions guys! Keep em coming!

OK, I got confused. Glad I came here 1st instead of buying one first. I am in need of either a replacement bumper and new valance, OR a bumper cover. Need to stay around 600 bucks, not including paint. Wanna keep the foglights too. Looks like i'm gonna need a new bumper any way I look at it unless I get a cover. Has anyone had a cover before? Just wondering how they would hold up.

I'm pretty sure Smok][n has a bumper cover on his truck. Not sure which one though. However, the valances and covers you're looking are for more of a "street" look and IMO wont really look right on a 4X4. Especially if you've leveled the front. Just my opinion so.......

Agreed. Leave the Roush and FX2 valances to us 2WD's

I thought the Roush was only a valance.. not a cover and a valance.

Am I wrong?

That is correct. Just a valance. There are 3 covers (tuff, xenon, & xenon 2) then valances (FX2, Roush, Harley).
