Headlined by a stylish metal honeycomb mesh screen, the HDX Bandit bumper from WESTiN is engineered to guard your truck’s front end—headlights, grille, hood, and front fenders—from road hazards both expected and unexpected.

Protected by a black powdercoat, the HDX Bandit’s heavy-duty diamond-plate steel construction features schedule 40 pipe, grille guard with 2” outer wraparound wings, and 2-3/4” upright rubber strips. In addition to its head-turning good looks, the honeycomb screen allows maximum airflow to the intercooler or radiator area.

WESTiN gave the Bandit a 2″ hitch receiver and two heavy-duty (9,500 lb.) bow shackle mounts; together, these can deliver multiple towing options. Compatible with factory fog lamps or LED post mount lights. Bolt-on installation with hardware and mounting brackets included.

Note: Removable mesh screens allow for the factory camera and adaptive cruise control options available on some late-model Ford applications. In addition, some applications for late-model Ram and Chevrolet have provisions for factory parking sensors.

  • Protects against damage from wildlife and road debris.
  • Heavy-duty diamond plate steel and schedule 40 steel pipe.
  • Honeycomb mesh protects grille.
  • HD 2-3/4” wide upright rubber strips and 1-1/2” headlight-protection tubes.

LP270 ion yellow driving lights from PIAA produce a custom look on the front of your vehicle and emit an industry-leading yellow light that is far less reflective in snow, sleet, rain, fog, and dust for increased safety in poor weather conditions. PIAA designed this unique driving beam to offer extended sight while retaining side and shoulder illumination, while the integrated Reflector Facing Technology precisely controls the light output to ensure a street-legal beam that eliminates glare for oncoming traffic.

Features

  • Beam is designed for extreme distances with sufficient side and shoulder illumination.
  • Reflector Facing Technology precisely controls output for better beam definition.
  • 2,500-K ion yellow beam throws large amounts of light in poor weather (two high-power LEDs)
  • Rugged, compact 2.75” design with multiple mounting options for maximum versatility
