A aftermarket bumper is necessary if you have trouble staying away from immovable objects.

I get it . Not planning on hitting anything. But buy insurance for the just in case situations …. car home boat sled etc. So a couple hundred bucks for a sninz , Rasmussen . zbroz should be a good deal over the life of the sled. Anyone brand you like or know is better than the rest?

Due to color availability, I personally like the look of the XC front bumper from doo.

The stock bumper is way too light. The XC is quite heavy but well anchored, and you can actually hit something without replacing plastic.

So when that new after market solid bumper does not give something further down the line gives. Doo bumper is cheaper to buy and fix. Molding ,braces and tunnels aren't cheap.
Ran aftermarket bumpers on Polaris, Cat and skidoo. Never had an issue. Prefer the aftermarket for better protection and physical appearance. Have you ever ran an aftermarket?
