Great product, well packaged for shopping. Fits perfectly to mounting holes on frame. My only complaint is the bolts to mount the plate are too soft. Trying to tighten them too much gets the Allen wrench socket stripped. A more conventional 10mm bolt head would be better. Other than that it was way to assemble and mount to underside of vehicle.
We appreciate your feedback. I have passed on the info to our product team.
These look great in the bronco easy to install took about 10 minutes per install. You can use the bits that are given to you via Ford to install it.
I thought the price was a little excessive, but once receiving the brackets, it only goes to show the term " you get what you pay for" still is true. The product exceeded my expectations. I can recommend this product!
Let me start off with how much I love these doors. The look and quality of build is excellent and easy to install. I have to give a shout out to the shipping department for how well these doors are packaged and the freight service that handles and delivers these. I had mine stripped and color matched to my Jeep color. These doors are AWESOME!!!!!
Great looking Wrangler!
Thanks for the speedy delivery and these things were packaged incredibly well! Thanks
Beautiful ride!
I really like the look of these steps/sliders on my Gladiator and I like how robust they feel but both sides of the vehicle. The fitment was 1 to 2% off which led to a lot of headache and having to muscle these things into place on the pinch weld including drilling out part of the pinch weld so that all of the mounting locations would actually fit.
Happy to hear you were able to get these installed. The factory pinch weld holes do need to be drilled out in some cases.
Was able to put it on within 10 minutes. Looks amazing and I love the quick release pin feature! Cops around here are getting picky about cars not having front plates and I honestly didnt want to deal with them! Looks amazing and fit right on the d-ring slot on the front of my dv8 bumper.
I looked for quite a while to find Front Door Pockets that looked the part on my Bronco Raptor and were built from a quality metal. These Pockets met those requirements. They were super easy to install. They replace the cheesy panels that come stock. The Pockets do not interfere with my leg when driving, they are nicely designed to stay tucked out of the way. I highly recommend this upgrade for any new generation Bronco.
Perfect fit and looks great! Use DV8 3” elite pods clear.
I decided not to chance getting pulled over again in Texas for not having a front license plate, and fortunately DV8 had exactly what I needed. It's very simple to install, and I like that I can easily remove the license plate when I go off road. It's built like a tank and should last a lifetime. Most of my aftermarket add-ons are from DV8 because everything they produce is high quality and built to last. Highly recommended!
Work perfectly. Easy install and directions were easy to follow. Makes getting to roof rack much easier. I bought 2 sets to get to front and back.
Yes, now I’m technically legal having my license plate on the bumper.
Is it legible from an oncoming driver vehicle height?
Is the license plate legible from a distance, standing at a vehicle? Not so sure. No room degrees of freedom for adjustment.
I like the product idea. Easy installation.
Not giving all stars due to license plate readability.
What’s y’all’s size opinion, thoughts?
We offer two license place options for the 'Capable Bumper'. This option was created due to feedback from customers that go off roading frequently and wanted to keep max clearance. It sounds like our street version was a better fit for your scenario. The part number is LPBR-04 if you are looking to have a more vertical license plate.
My nets were horrible on my '15 JK. Every time I looked at them I threw up in my mouth a little. Then I connected the dots and made the connection. I walked in my mother-in-law changing once. Makes sense now. Anyway, install was simple and they're sturdy as all get out. They don't stick out too much and look great. Install was too easy. Had to nurse my first beer to make it through. This is an amazing product and is long overdue.
First off these things are very well built, looks like they will handle a lot. Installation took about 35 minutes due to doing it myself, A extra set of hands will be useful due to the weight of these.
Great Quality and easy to install. If you have Rampage/Havoc Trailview Fastback Soft Top for Bronco, you will have to make some modifications to the rollbar extrusion piece.
Panels are built well, and with the long cutouts on sides makes it very easy to mount with hole locations. Used mine to customize my amp rack!
Love the extra protection easy install and the extra backup for any off roading protection
This pinch weld covers are easily installed and look awesome, I put nerf bars on that dropped down a little and the pinch weld was very noticeable, this covers paired with a set of nerf bars look incredibly great, awesome product.
Just received and installed the pegs on my 2024 Bronco Wildtrak. The quality of the pieces is really good. Very HD product. Install was easy, it took 30 seconds per side… My only concern is that the pegs can’t be locked into an angled position. They sit 90 degrees out when extended(they can fold in). A rubber bumper holds them in place when out and the clearance between the peg and the door body seam is pretty tight. I will keep checking clearance as this rubber bumper wears in. I’m concerned this may cause a clearance issue in the future and cause the peg to make contact with the body. Also that bumper is just pressed on, so if it happens to fall off over time the peg would likely contact the body. Maybe future models should add a little angle to the peg bumper metal to add additional clearance just to make sure there is a little cushion.
Great storage compartment! Dont follow install instructions. Installed in 15 min by sliding the bin in through the trunk rather than unbolting everything from underneath. Thats just an unnecessary step.
2023 bronco raptor
We all know front license plates suck. Unfortunately states like Oregon require them. To our surprise when we bought our 2024 Bronco with the metal bumper. Ours did not have one and the OEM solution didn’t seem to fit with the bumper, and was about as elegant as bugs bunny’s teeth hanging upside down. I had seen this no buck tooth, no drilling. And blocks nothing important. Now I’m street legal and not regretting my life choices every time I walk up to my Bronco.
Outstanding shipping time and extremely well packaged. Super fast installation. The camera blocking as was described isn’t too bad at all.
Perfect fit and extremely simple install!
At less than half of the cost of the other "Raptor taxed" bumpers out there the DV8 is a solid choice. However, there are some short comings that come with a cheap price.
If you haven't tackled a project of this scale or don't know your Raptor well do some homework before beginning. There are many errors in the instructions and things omitted that need to be known. First and probably mostly importantly; if you have Adapative Cruise Control installed make sure you have Forscan and know all the "as built" codes that need to be changed. Otherwise your dash will light up like Christmas. If you want to keep the ACC you'll definitely want to get the relocation bracket. Watch other videos on removing the bumper as there are some missing bolts in the instructions.
Building the DV8 bumper is pretty easy but time consuming. Access to some of the hardware when putting on the plates is almost impossible. But with the right tools it can be done. Installation can be done with one person but you'll definitely want some help getting it into place. Once installed it looks really good on the truck.
This is a solid 3 star bumper but I give it 4 stars because of the customer service. My bumper arrived slightly damaged and concessions were made promptly.
If money is no object go with one of the other premium brands. But this bumper is excellent and looks great for the cost.
Appreciate the feedback. We will have our product team review the instructions and update as needed.
