DV8 Offroad
Competition Series Front BumperFOR THE 2021–2027 Ford Bronco
Part # FBBR-04
Before you buy
Fits all trims except Bronco Raptor. Includes its own steel skid plate with side gussets that directly replaces your factory plastic or metal skid, so the factory skid plate isn't needed with this bumper. Includes mounts for OEM parking sensors so that feature stays fully functional. If your Bronco has adaptive cruise control, we recommend the ABBR-01 ACC Relocation Bracket so ACC keeps working like it did from the factory. Not compatible with factory fog lights.

Details
Fitment
This front bumper is built by DV8 Offroad for the 2021 Ford Bronco through the 2027 Ford Bronco, all trims except the Bronco Raptor. It's the lowest profile bumper in the DV8 lineup, and it does not fit the factory skid plate since it replaces it outright.
Best For
Bronco owners who care most about a low-profile front end, approach clearance, and skid protection rather than a bulky bumper or winch setup.
Design
The design extends protection from the front of the Bronco back to the differential, with an improved approach angle over the stock front bumper and skid combined. It's built from 1.5mm and 3mm steel tubing with 3.5mm steel plates, aimed at cutting weight without giving up protection. A paintable aluminum mesh panel sits at the center for improved airflow to the intercooler.
Protection
A steel skid plate is included as a direct replacement for the factory plastic or metal skid, with bolt-on side gussets adding extra engine protection.
Lighting Compatibility
The bumper has mounts for two 3-inch LED pod lights and a 20-inch dual row LED light bar.
Electronics
This bumper has mounting holes for the front parking sensors, with plugs included for Broncos that don't have the feature. Adaptive Cruise Control needs a relocation bracket, sold separately, to keep that feature working after install.
Installation
Installation is a bolt-on job, running about 3 hours of shop time. Bronco Forge stocks this DV8 Offroad front bumper for 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025, 2026, and 2027 Ford Bronco owners who want the lowest profile front bumper DV8 builds for this platform. Each bumper is backed by a 1-year warranty.

Questions
How much actual approach angle improvement does this give vs the Spec Series?
The low-profile design typically gains a few degrees over full-width bumpers. The bumper face sits closer to the body and doesn't extend as far downward, which is where approach angle is won or lost.
Is this the right bumper if I'm planning to add a snorkel?
The low-profile front end gives you better frontal clearance, which helps when routing a snorkel near the A-pillar. No direct conflict with common snorkel mounting positions.
Does the lower profile mean less radiator coverage on deep water crossings?
Slightly less frontal coverage than the Spec Series on deep water entries. If water crossings are a major part of your use case, the Spec Series provides more frontal coverage.
Can I still attach D-rings or shackles for a recovery with this bumper?
Yes. Integrated recovery point locations are built into both sides.
What is the maximum winch depth this cradle accepts?
The cradle accepts standard 10x4.5 bolt pattern winches. Most 12K class winches fit. If you're running an unusually deep motor housing, confirm depth against the cradle dimension before ordering.
Does this fit the Raptor?
No. This fits the standard 2021-2027 Ford Bronco only. For Raptor-specific bumpers, see the Raptor Spec Series and Raptor Tube Series on this site.
Does it work with the Sasquatch Package?
Yes. Compatible with Sasquatch-equipped Broncos in both 2-door and 4-door.
How does the front profile look after install compared to the Spec Series?
Noticeably more compact and lower sitting. The Competition Series reads as a purpose-built trail bumper focused on clearance. The Spec Series looks more imposing and full-width.
