Nice bumper, but not digging the turn signals.

Got to agree, the OE turn signals would have made the bumper where the current ones don't suit the style, and those large panel gaps at the fenders just ruin the look.

With cars, the first thing that denotes quality IMO is the size of the panel gaps. So, if you want to go for the integrated look, those will have to be closed or smaller.

I agree. Love the bumper and where they put the turn signals. It's an awesome idea, I just don't like the gaps by the flares, and I feel like something is missing on the part where the stock turn signals go.

I would leave the stock turn signals. Awesome bumper but I think it look better with turn signals left alone to stock

Idk I kinda like the turn signals like that. I agree though, there definitely needs to be something where the OEM turn signals go. Perhaps additional fog lights or something.

I think you should add more lights in the "wings". Is there any reason you couldn't?

Well theoretically you could move the turn signals back to their stock location and just cut out the piece that's there on the bumper. Unless RL made a mounting bracket behind them or something

RL has a certain style/look that carries over from the KJ to the KK bumpers, which helps with their marketing. I think the similarity is there so people will recognize who made it. It looks like they use the same center steel section and turn signal hardware on both bumpers too, which cuts costs. AtTheHelm's bumper design keeps the turn signals in the stock location, so it is nice that each manufacturer has their own distinct style and customers can choose what they like best.

I may be wrong but I think Atthehelm's bumper is much more stronger than RL's.

RL's are good looking, but looks like they made it with thin metal sheets.

Like I said, I may be wrong :jester: :jester:

In any case, it is nice to have two real, quality aftermarket bumper options for the KK! :BANANA: For a while there it was BYOB - build your own bumper. :jester:
