Default Other rear bumpers

Does anyone know of a different rear bumper design, all I can find is the moco and JP which look the same.

I have the HD bumper and then I added the chrome lips (Exhaust Trim part #83843-09) over the exhaust openings.
I like the way they look and compliment each other. To answer your question though, no I don't know of another bumper. You may want to look at HD part #84023-11.

The only other mountings I know of are light bars, & not bumpers.

I didn't like any of the bumpers available, so I made one.

Thanks, I like the look better than the chrome designs I've seen.

We have no plans to make any more. This is just one we put together one afternoon when I got tired of looking at all the chrome options.

I'm sure you can find a local welder who can make one up for you in 2-3 hours.

It is 1 5/8" round tube and 1 1/2" flat bar (3/16") that is welded 3/16" flat plate that is bolted to both the cross members under the trunk.

It is also powdercoated.

I've been running it for about 30k miles and has held up well.

I looked all over and couldn't find another bumper. Like Sloufoot said, all the rest were lightbars. Be nice to have the skill and material like Kevin I ended up with the Harley one to protect my back end!
