- Hey everyone!
I'm excited to release this new video for you all to watch and enjoy! The editing for this video took forever, so hopefully it is worth it for everyone to learn from and see just how much is out there for our FJ Cruisers, and I'm sure there are more that I missed in all my searching!
I am a moderator/member on the FJCruiserForums.com and originally made an updated version of the front bumper comparison thread back in 2013. At the time, the existing bumper thread had outdated information, broken picture links, and other issues. So I stepped forward and threw together the NEW complete front bumper comparison thread.
Here is a link to that thread on the forums in case you want to check it out and learn more about some of the bumpers seen in this video: www.fjcruiserf...
I decided it was time to do something similar and make this video as a way of documenting every FJ Cruiser bumper I could find since as more time goes by, photos online disappear and it gets harder and harder to find information about discontinued bumpers or products. In my research for this video, not only did I use the bumpers listed or formerly listed in that bumper comparison thread, but I also discovered many many many more bumpers out there from around the globe! Where ever FJs are, people are making sweet bumpers to put on them and they look great!
If you know of anything I missed in the video comment below and let me know! Or just comment on which bumper is your favorite, or which one you have/plan to have on your own FJ Cruiser!
Thanks for watching and be sure to like the video and share it! Let everyone know it exists cuz it took a lot of work to make and I think it will really help folks!
And if you like the music, be sure to check out one of my favorite artists, Home! His music is so good! Especially his song Tides.
Thanks!

Thanks for watching everyone! Here are some helpful time stamps to navigate around the main 3 sections of the video:
0:08 - Bumpers still in production
14:37 - Custom or Unknown Bumpers
16:57 - Discontinued Bumpers
I’m sure there are more bumpers out there or perhaps a specific bumper is in the wrong “section” of the video but the amount of editing and research time that went into this video was incredibly high, so hopefully you enjoy what IS there vs dwelling on what ISN’T. And even though I like the background music added to the video, if you’re not a fan, simply mute it as it doesn’t add anything to the video. Share this video with your fellow FJ-ers as I’m sure all FJ owners would enjoy it! Thanks!
Holy crap! What a tremendous amount of work. Just a smorgasbord of creativity. Loved so many of them but, even after seeing all the options, I still love my Trailworx Fab.
I like the one on my FJ at 3:17! Thanks Hayden! Great video, its nice to see all the different styles over the years that have come and gone or stuck around.
Thanks! Yeah in the early days of the FJ, tube bumpers were all the rage, especially forerunner style tube bumpers, plus they were easier to manufacture. Then as time went on we got all these different styles of plate bumpers. But it is funny just how many versions of the ARB-style bull bar there are in the world haha
Great bumper Colin! That's one of a few I paused the video on. Just got into my 1st FJC a couple days ago. What headlights are you running?
@@PAKraig thanks. Look up Nestor on the FJ pages, he can make you a set of headlights.
2x speed for high tempo 80s synthwave electronica and FJ bullbars.
I must love FJ's. I keep having to remind myself to look at the bumper instead of the FJ.
Please please please do the same for rear bumper. This is fantastic!
Love my FJ and enjoyed the video but one thing I learned is some people shouldn’t be allowed to design nothing. Some of these bumpers looked simply awful and like they were built by a blind person lol. Anyways great video and great amount of work you put into this. I’m considering the Ironman4x4 bumper similar to your ARB.
Awesome! Yeah the Ironman 4x4 bumper does seem to be similarly designed to the ARB one but with some slight improvements that make it a great choice if you like that bumper design. I got to chat with a representative from Ironman 4x4 at FJ Summit one year and he was telling me all about it and it really sounded great!
@@FJX2000_Productions thanks 😊 Was there a reason you decided to switch from the ARB bumper to what you have now?
@@lyric.kayden great question, so for me personally I just was never a huge fan of the "look" of an ARB bumper, it didnt fit my style and it almost felt like it dated the FJ and made it seem old since ARB has been around for so long and their bumper designs are pretty much just copy and paste for every model of vehicle, so i wanted something newer, more aggressive, and lower profile since the ARB bumper sticks out pretty far relative to the bumper I ended up going to, a Demello Offroad one.
@@FJX2000_Productions ahh ok that makes sense. Totally understand. Yeah I myself have appreciated that old school look since the FJ is kind of retro old school look. But again totally understand your reasons 100%. I’ve always been about that old school Land Cruiser and LR Defender style lol. Awesome videos and keep up the great work.
I should have kept watching, you covered it. Great channel.
09:27 There's my favorite once more. Been following Dapurak's FJ and damn.
One of my favorites too!
I have the trail-gear off-road tube bumper with the big stinger & winch at 21:22. It came on the fj when I bought it last month. Not sure if I am going to keep it on or change it out for something else. The weird coincidence is, is that I had put the same bumper on my Tacoma 7 years ago with a slight variation with the part around the lights. Obviously a vehicle specific variation. Anyway thanks for making this video so I know all the options out there if I decide to swap it out eventually.
10:30 😍
Excellent video thank you so much for posting it!!
Well you missed one. My 07 is running a, steel, WARN front bumper which has a opening to accommodate the WARN 9000 Winch / Air Compressor. Im sure its obsolete now, the matching rear bumper is still available.
Thanks incredible vid! Much respect...
1:22 Amazing
Love my red dog fab bumper! Im the silver one rocking the grillhoop version
Awesome!
You have good taste.
When is Resz Fab going to return the money from all the Clients he promised to fabricate and didn’t produce?
need to buy fj soon
Yep, gotta get the FJ before you can look at getting the bumpers!
I hope to find anyone used for less than $500 bucks! 😂😂😂
you should add song playlist. !!!!
What kind of vehicle is at 4:24? It does not resemble an FJ
It is just an FJ Cruiser with the aftermarket Land Rover style grill and headlights. I’m personally not a fan but lots of folks run them and like the more modern look 🤷♂️
@@FJX2000_Productions
Thank you for answering. After seeing more of them, I agree with you. I do like round projector lights however.
Resz Fab. Extortionist
The only bumper that should go on an FJ is the ARB, my work here is done.
Small minds do make for quick work.
@@flyingsodwai1382everyone is entitled to their own opinion but no to slander others.
I have the ARB on mine. Just installed this week. I love it. I made an install video because I couldn’t find one for the FJ. ua-cam.com/video/QSksX_AAXeI/v-deo.htmlsi=l-yztfhIKgCc4Bgj
I wish my my tundra front end looked like the Fj
The FJ with a bumper does look sick doesn't it?
@@FJX2000_Productions sure does
Man there’s a lot of ugly bumpers!
