Of the three bash plates I know of,
Rally Inovations
HRG
JCR
I'm trying to see which extends farthest to the side. Which is the widest.

To anyone who has these installed would you share a picture or a review, pro's and cons?
This is not concerning the engine skid. Just the bumper bash plates.

Which trim level do you have? There's two basic approaches I've seen here, but it's based on whether you have the 1.5L or the 2.0L

A user called WindsOfChange has an ongoing thread about armoring his BL.

I have a BL.
However I have been leaning towards the JCR that I would modify to mount.

I have seen his thread on the subject but he isn't going to use the JCR because of that reason.

And the HRG is to expensive and too heavy. Since it extends back so far I'm worried the dealer would charge me extra to do an oil change. Lol
So realistically i might have answered my own question. The Rally Inovations is super cheap though.

Some don't support or work for Badlands, so double check on that.
Jcr says it doesn't work with a BL but if I decided to get it I would modify to fit

I got the HRG,
So that's a good show of how far it extends to the side.

The JCR goes quite a ways almost to the recovery winch point.

I just want the one that goes the farthest for the most protection. If the JCR is an inch wider I'd save the $60 and do that

I thought the Hrg was widest. ?
I’m thinking of leaving it for a bit and perhaps adding to it in the future. A cross piece that is welded to the plate from behind, extends to the edge of the bumper and attaches in more spots for triangulation.
