A f t e r m a r k e t D a i l y N e w s T h u r s d a y, N o v e m b e r 7 , 2 0 1 3 2 4 TAKE ON THE TOUGH JOBS WITH ROAD ARMOR Road Armor is a manufacturer of high end aftermarket bumpers for trucks and SUV's. The company makes bumpers primarily for full-size pickups such as Ford, Toyota, Dodge, Chevy, Hummer and GMC. At SEMA 2013, Road Armor is introducing new products for the Ford Raptor and the Jeep. All of its prod- ucts, including these new ones, are designed around the WARN M12. The company will also showcase a new, non-winch version of its bumpers available for late model Ford, Dodge and Chevy HD vehicles. Road Armor takes great pride in the design and quality with which it manu- factures. Road Armor's bumper was the original smooth steel bumper on the mar- ket. Previously, other brands used a dia- mond plate, which is a rough look tacked to a pipe as the main point of reinforce- ment. Road Armor's Stealth line has more of a unique look that fits perfectly to your vehicle. Road Armor's sales are made primarily through whole- sale distribution, through distributors such as Meyer Distributing, 4 Wheel Parts, Custom Truck Parts, Inc. and oth- ers. Sixty percent of the company's rev- enue is generated through wholesale dis- tribution. By adopting a model of selling to the trade as opposed to the end-user has taken Road Armor to the next level. The quality of Road Armor's prod- ucts and reputation of its brand over time is the biggest factor in its successes. The company has over 12 years of experience in engineering and manufacturing quality products, and Road Armor will continue to exceed cus- tomer's expectations in every way.

BOONDOCK BUMPERS OFFERS ATTRACTIVE PRICES FOR QUALITY BUMPERS Boondock Bumpers, LLC is an Oklahoma City-based aftermarket truck accessory manufacturer. Established just over five years ago, Boondock has begun to gain market share by leaps and bounds. With its no-nonsense approach to business, the company has been able to build an incredibly loyal fan base. Anthony Perkins, who owns and operates Boondock Bumpers, LLC with his wife Kami, has been designing bumpers and truck accessories since his days in the Navy. He has a keen eye for design and an innate ability to make bolt- on applications that seamlessly accentu- ate each vehicle with an aesthetically pleasing look and feel. In a trend that shows no sign of slowing, customers across the country have been realizing the need for greater front end protection on their trucks. Many customers have resorted to bolting on gaudy "deer smashers" that are heavy on function, but leave a lot to be desired when it comes to fitment and overall look of the truck. Most customers admittedly make this choice due to economic factors. Since the trend of adding full bumper replacements to trucks as an aftermarket bolt-on start- ed, it has been widely assumed that any bumper that looked good would also be out of the common working man's price range. That is where Boondock Bumpers, LLC comes in. With its 85 Series front bumper list- ing at an $899 MSRP, Boondock Bumpers has bridged the gap between form and function when it comes to front bumpers. Similar bumpers cost con- sumers upwards of $300 more than the $899 price tag for the 85 Series Base Front Bumper. The 85 Series bumper is hands down the best value on the market today. Boondock is also turning a lot of heads with its 95 Series Front Bumper, which comes standard as winch ready and can hold up to a 16.5k non-integrat- ed winch. With an MSRP of $1,199, this monster comes in priced at half the cost of competing brands. Don't think for a minute that any of these prices indicate a lack of quality. Boondock Bumpers will meet or exceed any listed technical specification of its competitors. You can do comparisons for yourself by stopping by booth 33271 at the SEMA show. Also, keep your eyes peeled for the Boondock sponsored SEMA builds that are sporting the newly released 95R Front and 55R Rear bumpers. The -R series bumpers are specifically designed to accommodate multiple configurations of Rigid Industries various LED lights.
