Class C E-450 front bumper upgrade
Searched through the forum a bit and didn't see evidence of someone upgrading to a heavy duty front bumper/grill guard on their Class C E-450. I searched for these about a year ago and a year before that and didn't see much. Now I found pretty much what I was looking for and ordered one. Should be built and arrive maybe late Jan from manufacturer. It's a Thunder Struck FEV08-200, ordered through bumpersuperstore.com. Had a front 2" receiver installed as option. I figure I'll black out the chrome grill with plasti-dip before installing.
Looks like this:

What's the purpose of that? Are you planning to drive through brush?

It looks manly, but I don't get it either.

Like it. Sometimes we cannot control what others do or in exploring America what may step out in front of you.

Need your help
Love it! your post has saved much searching. Now, if you could share the configuration I would appreciate this. I don't have a dealer near me in Canada, so I am looking at ordering by web and since I can not see an actual sample.
I would like your choices on paint, flat vs diamond, and perf screen vs verical bars. This would help me greatly.
Did the installation require any special alignment or drilling?
I do understand the need.....I am putting this on a 2011 Alp 24DS E450 winter package as my retirement hunting and fishing cabin on wheels. I will also be towing a 12 ft cargo trailer tripped with a side-by-side, freezer and generator with solar equipment, small workshop and a 13ft esquif boat on top.
This is my missing piece.

Sorry that was 4 years ago. Sold my Outlaw Dec 21 and bought a class B converted van in 2022. Don’t remember much about that grill guard other than what was posted.
