Reviews for Paramount Automotive 51-8061 Full Width Front Bumper with Fog Light Housing and D-Rings for 18-22 Jeep Wrangler JL & Gladiator JT
Order was shipped directly from the vendor and took longer than expected. (But that seems to be the norm these days) I've had it for a few months at this point and it has been great. Install was straightforward and everything fit well. Fitted a Badland Apex Winch to it and it fit perfectly.
Nice looking bumper. It does not go that close to my fenders on my Rubicon. About a 2.5 to 3.0 inch gap to the fender. Harbor freight Badlands Apex 12k winch fits snug yet perfectly. Very easy to install. Led lights bolt right in. You will need the wiring from your old bumper to hook them up. I haven't taken the wire out yet.
fits great looks good. simple install. need better details on fog light removal from factory brackets. fitment of a 12k winch is very tight but fits. overall nice bumper
Bumper was exactly as described. It arrived in a very large box with tons of padding to protect it while being shipped so not a single mark on it. Fitment was spot on and the end result is a fantastic looking bumper. Welds are strong looking and came with a good coating for the armor. Very happy with the quality of this bumper. Straight forward install.
Bearit: I have a 2018 Jeep JL U. i needed something that would take my OEM Halogen fog lights. This fit the bill nicely. It arrived well packaged. If you are remotely mechanical you can do this. Don't blame Paramount because removing the original is a pain, blame Jeep for making it difficult. Once you get the wiring harness out of the stock bumper, the rest is easy. This bumper goes together very easy and installed easy, also. For the fog light install put the nuts on the bottom on the outside screws, it seemed easier with my fat fingers. All in all, great bumper for the money, stout and easy to install.
Very strong, great looking bumper. Easy to install. Very good tech support! Looks very empty without a winch, so I’m not sure i would chose if your not going to install a winch, and winch fit perfectly in the well.
Great bumper. Just installed a Badlands 12k Apex Winch. It fit barely. The factory holes in the winch plate lined up great.
Nice looking bumper but I bought it to replace my stock steel bumper on my 2020 Jeep Gladiator. The fog lights are not compatible so I'm trying to find something that will work using original harness and power.
Also, I have a steel skidplate that came stock to protect the undercarriage that will not work with this bumper with some type of modification.
If you are buying this the replace the steel bumper on your jeep gladiator Rubicon edition I would recommend against it unless you have the tools and equipment for bumper modification.
Bought this bumper because the pictures show it going to the fender, this is not the case there is s a 3 inch gap between the bumper and the fender. Also when I just snug up the winch cable for storage I can see flex it the bumper.
It's a nice looking heavy bumper but my original fog lights from my 2021 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sport, LED fog lights with three mounting holes will not work with this bumper.
