Sorry to dig up an old post, but I am trying to confirm the actual width of the Wertymade WM-65 TRX-4 Sport Wrap Around Flat Top Front Bumper. The description on all websites I've seen it listed on says it is 9.75" wide - which would be way too wide for the Sport body.

Anyone ever buy one of those Wertymade "wrap around" bumpers specifically for the TRX-4 Sport?

I went ahead and bought one. WM-65 TRX-4 Sport Wrap Around Flat Top Front Bumper is indeed 9.75" wide. I mocked it up to my Sport, and the wings stick out about 1/4" past the fender flares. I think they would get hung up a lot. I realize I could cut them down a bit, but I think I'm going to try a different bumper altogether. In addition to being quite wide, the Wertymade bumper mounts to the outside of the frame rails, and where the slots are in the mounting brackets to bolt it on don't really allow you to mount it very close to the body. It's going to stick out quite a bit. May fine another use for it, but I don't think it's right for my Sport.

Sounds like Wertymade didn't do their homework on this one. Thanks for the review. "thumbsup"
