A factory bumper doesn't leave much room for a winch or real approach angle improvement on a Subaru Forester. Body Armor 4x4's Hiline Front Winch Bumper replaces it with 3/16 inch steel, built to hold a winch up to 5,500 lbs along with integrated shackle mounts and a light bar cutout for auxiliary lighting. A built-in skid plate covers the undercarriage in that area too, finished in a durable powder coat for corrosion resistance. A serious upgrade for Forester owners building out real recovery capability. We ship this from our Calgary shop across Canada.
