Any overheating issues with full replacement bumper?
Looking around at full replacement bumpers and most of them eliminate or nearly eliminate the airflow coming through the factory lower grille. One of my favorite bumpers is also shown on the website photos with a bull bar and 2 round fog lights mounted on top of the bumper that block airflow to the upper grille as well.

Just curious if anyone is having overheating issues losing this much airflow to the radiator?

Great question, I am thinking the same thing and I'm looking for full bumper. I got my eye on the LFD off road one.

just out of curiosity, when you overheat are you in motion during high speed? idling at a light? both?

no issues with overheating in 5 years/65,000 miles. There's still plenty of air flow around the radiator.
