Check out Addictive Desert Designs as another option. I do not own their products but have been able to check them out at SEMA. This is a very good product line like N-Fab.

anybody ever have any progress on their pre-runner builds?

LifeisthePits · January 9, 2015

I just ordered the N-Fab bumper and light bar myself to switch from the Iron Cross front. I'm not looking to go total prerunner but I like the look of the bumper, my truck is mostly a street queen so I think it just gives it a more aggressive look and sheds some weight up front.

I will throw some pics up next week when I get it on.

I like the look of the Raptor bumper in that pic. I'm glad some of you guys get them. But it's just not in the cards for me and my 'old man' truck. Besides, I have chrome wheels. You can't have chrome wheels and a pre-runner front end.

Four months old resurrection but meh! I want to see more GM/Chevy pre-runners. Personally i think they look phenomenal and if i had that kind of cash lying around a baja pre-runner kit with King coil-overs would be on it's way.

I love that rogue racing did that, that pre-runner looks good. Though i'm not totally sold on the fender flares bulging out, i guess it makes sense, but i really like the original bevelled in design of the stock flares. I'd rather have the stock aesthetic and just cut the inside of the fenders out.

Excluding the tire rack on the top, this truck looks just as phenomenal if not better than a raptor IMHO, now it's nowhere near the modification that Rogue did to theirs but for me just a long travel suspension kit for the front and rear would be enough. Rogue made a proper pre-runner. I just would like to be able to hit a dirt track a couple of times a year or going flying down turn roads on the farm or through the field etc. I have some fields that mimic whoops and washes of a track lol. It's something i certainly wouldn't try in my truck right now.

Still looks really awesome.

What i would like to know is this. A lot of people talk about the Raptor compared to the reaper. Everyone goes on about the Reaper just having a regular chevy frame and the raptor having it's frame built ground up for racing etc. I would like to know how wide the stance of the new Chevy/GMs are they seem pretty damn wide. I would also like to know what constitutes which frame is better and why. From what i understand of the regular trucks GM has the stronger frames right? It's hard to find anecdotal evidence for any of these things on the internet other than hear say.

A pre runner looks good if it is actually a pre runner.. Which means it needs propers suspension, wheels, custom fenders, bumpers Etc, not just some Hellas bolted to the roof with a bolt on pre runner style bumper.

As for the frames.. Regardless of how strong the frame is, for a truck that I was actually going to use for "prerunning", I would no question reinforce the frame, shock mounts etc. That is one thing you don't want to mess around with

I like the look of these pre-runner bumpers but $1700+ seems pretty steep for a lot of these.

I will be doing a pre runner setup to my truck as soon as I have the money for it. I already off road and jump my truck so I need to get it done. Looking at King Shocks and Mazulla off road parts. Expensive project ahead.

I respect that truck but personally hate the NNBS pre-runners. They're fugly to me. Love the 2014+ body style with a pre-runner kit.

The 2014 does look far superior compared to the previous generation. I'd love to have a true prerunner one day. And just beat the ever living snot out of it.

I'm in for some more prerunner style pics. I have never really liked the look of a prerunner but most I've seen have been highly modified or a ram prerunner. But man, I saw a white F-150 on a 6" w/ 35s the other day with a prerunner bumper and man did it look good. Got me to thinkin

The FX4 and Raptor styled into a pre-runner look phenomenal. Not so much for 2013 GMs and down. 2014s and up yes. I think it's the wide stance of the Raptor and Silverado that make it look so good with huge tires and large bulging suspension up front.
