Metal rear bumpers - how to make legal
Posted: Wed Nov 01, 2017 1:48 pm
I am thinking about buying a Smittybuilt rear bumper with a spare tire carrier from Offroadzone in Dubai for my JK.
I have heard people talk about a procedure to get the installer to provide paperwork so that modifications will be accepted during inspection. I asked Offroadzone about this, and they stated they cannot provide any paperwork to make the mod legal.
Anybody have experience with this procedure? Will I end up having to remove a metal rear bumper to pass inspection every year?
Any advice is appreciated, getting tired of my ugly rear plastic bumper.
Thanks in advance!
