Bumpers-Front, Rear or Both

So I need some advice. Of the guys that are adding new bumpers how many are just doing the front? I am adding a front ADD Stealth with a 40" curved midnight edition light. I am kicking around the idea of adding the rear but I am not sure if I really need it. It would finish it off nicely and look cool but I feel like I could do a lot of other things to the truck with that additional $2K.

Since I know there is no lack of opinions on here, I thought I would see what everyone thought?! Can you run an aftermarket front without the rear...Thoughts??

No it will cause a weight imbalance resulting in improper preload of your suspension...

So glad we have actual Ford techs on here to help us with these types of issues.

This is what makes FRF great

I already managed this when I added the RPG collar. LOL

I had just the front ADD on my gen 1 raptor. I dont think it looked imbalanced, but I do think having the rear too would look better. I'd like to do ADD front and rear for my gen 2, but I hate that I have to get the intercooler upgrade to relocate it for the winch that I want. The cost of that is almost as much as the rear bumper. That whole intercooler relocation/ upgrade has delayed my purchase. That, and the light bar blocking a big chunk of the camera..

First world problems for sure.

I'm going to just do the front. I may add the rear later but the main thing for me was to have a winch

I ordered both.
