About Bumpers & Parts

A UTV or ATV bumper takes the hit from rocks, trees and other machines before the body and frame do, and some bumpers also carry accessories. Riders buy them to replace a bent or broken bumper, to add protection for trail or race use, or to change the look of the front or rear.

The listings here split into front and rear bumpers, so confirm which end you need. Material is the next decision. Steel bumpers are heavy and strong, and alloy bumpers are lighter. Sport and race designs, such as the Polaris RZR XP and PRO XP bumpers listed here, combine the bumper with a skid plate or come in colors to match the machine. There are also bumpers for ATVs such as the Honda TRX and Yamaha, and a number plate for race use. Bumpers are made for particular models and years, so pick your machine in the Ride Finder at the top of the page.

Brands here include Warn, Pro Armor, KFI Products, DG Performance and Rival Powersports USA. For brackets and fasteners, see Mounts, Brackets & Hardware. Related categories are Running Boards & Step Bars, Other Body & Frame and Body Parts, Doors & Fenders, all part of Body & Frame.

FAQs on UTV and ATV bumpers

How do I choose between a steel and an alloy bumper?

Steel is heavier and takes a hit well, but it can rust if the coating is damaged. Alloy is lighter, which keeps weight off the front end and does not rust like steel. Pick by how hard you ride and how much weight your suspension carries.

Can I mount a winch or lights on a UTV bumper?

Some bumpers are built to take a winch or lights, and many are not. Read the listing for what the bumper supports, and match any winch to the maker's mounting instructions. Check that the machine's front end can carry the added weight.

Will a heavy bumper affect my suspension?

It can. Extra weight at the front makes the front springs sit lower, and a steel bumper with a winch adds a good deal. If the machine sags or handles differently, ask the suspension maker about stiffer springs, and follow the owner's manual.

What is a sport bumper with a skid plate?

On the Polaris RZR models listed here, the sport bumper and skid plate are combined in one piece. It protects the front end and the area underneath it, so you do not need to buy two parts. Check the listing for coverage and the exact model.

How do I know a bumper fits my machine?

Match the make, model, year and trim in the listing, and check whether it is for the front or rear. Use the Ride Finder at the top of the page. Models with a similar name can have different frames, so do not rely on the name alone.
