No bumper. Go rollpan. Though that bumper is cool.

All depends on the style of truck, OffRoad hardcore would be a 4x4iron bumper.
Laid out I would go with a chrome rear. I think a chrome bumper on these trucks add personallity and character, or should I say keeps it.
A roll pan is cool, should be welded in imo. It would suit more of a laid out super shaved, tricked out version.
If its stock then I'd go with a rollpan, atleast it says "hey look at me I'm into custom trucks". As where a stock bumper would make your truck just appear stock.

No offense to anyone but roll pans are ugly on these trucks. They just dont have the lines for it. Always look like somethings missing. Leave roll pans for the newer trucks.
