I've liked it a lot. My advice is to get a good shop to put it on if you're not up to it though bc since it's modular, the fitment of one piece relies on how well the last piece was put on
I haven't had issues with the fog light surrounds but they are plastic and you can pull them right off so...
I've only driven it with the factory alone and both headliners- not with the cover king alone. So I can't say for sure but it's definitely quieter than stock alone.
I ended up with the artec rear bumper. Great unit, very solid, incorporates sensors and rigid back up lights, and is much more tucked up than stock. Also has cut outs so you can reuse factory recovery hooks.
Their company is based out of Utah and they make all their products in house. I went...
OK turns out I couldnt take the whole top off without taking my ARE bed cap off so I ended up getting a local custom shop to do the work for me.
I also tasked them with re-installing the factory headliner over top of it... because why waste it? The coverking one fits the contours of the top...
I ordered mine on the 26th and it just shipped today. Should get it early next week.
Looks like they may have a third party company called 'Custom Products Inc' making it rather than making it in house? Not sure
Trip to the dealer fixed the problem.
At first when I got in and tried it car play still wouldn't play phone audio but I realized the volume had been all the way down after the update haha.
I've had the same issue... Won't play audio from calls over the stereo, only through phone.
May take it to the dealer this weekend if that's the only solution anyone has come up with.
Anyone running this bumper? Would love to hear feedback. I like the clearance of it, look, and that stock sensors/hooks can work with it.
Comes bare metal.. A local shop says it will be 150 to powder coat

They are currently 4-6 weeks out on the rear high clearance rear bumper... Confirmed with local 4wp and the dv8 customer service.
Does Amazon have it available- I can't find it there
