Best Truck Bumpers for 2025

Upgrading to an aftermarket bumper has several benefits. The heavy-duty steel absorbs more damage than an OEM unit, they often include mounting provisions for additional accessories, and they elevate your stock vehicle into a beastly, custom ride. To help you choose from the hundreds of aftermarket bumpers out there, we look at the best truck bumpers available in 2025.

1. Steelcraft Elevation Front Bumper

Aftermarket bumpers have to check a lot of boxes to pass muster with modern truck owners, and the Steelcraft Elevation Front Bumper meets the majority of those demands. The bumper is made of six-gauge steel with a textured, matte-black powder coat. It's also designed to let you retain your OE fog lights, tow hooks, license plate mount, parking sensors, and front cameras. If you need extra lighting off road, the Elevation can accommodate most double-row LED light bars. Get all the extra protection you need without sacrificing any modern truck features with this great bumper from Steelcraft.

No drilling or cutting is required for most installations.

2. Steelcraft HD Front Bumper

For a more rugged-looking bumper that still lets you keep factory parking sensors and tow hooks, take a look at the Steelcraft HD Front Bumper. The bumper combines schedule 40 pipe and diamond plate steel to create a durable upgrade from your OEM unit. The integrated 2-inch receiver hitch is perfect for mounting accessories such as cargo racks, bike racks, and even certain snow plows.

Black powder coating prevents corrosion.
