Jeep Bumper End Caps


Jeep bumper end caps are made and used for a variety of reasons.  No matter why you are looking for them, they are made by a few different companies and are generally fairly easy to find.  Let’s take a quick peek at a couple of your options.

Stubby End Cap Kit by VDP

VDP has been in business since 2002.  They make everything from sound bars to tonneau covers for Jeeps.  The crew that is employed by VDP are all off road enthusiasts themselves and as such, they know exactly what kind of accessories Jeepers want and need.  Each one of the products made by VDP has been designed to upgrade the style of a Jeep.  Even more critical than that though is that they are all made to withstand the rigors of the trail.

Before VDP became their own brand, they made many popular accessories that other companies branded.  However, when their biggest client folded in 2002, there was a mad scramble for the top notch Jeep parts and accessories that had been branded by that specific company.  VDP realized this and that was how Vertically Driven Products was born.  Since the inception of the company, they have kept up with the demand for their products and they also constantly work to expand their product line and have now added truck and UTV parts and accessories to their product line.

With the Stubby End Cap Kit made by VDP, you can totally transform or even just repair your OE front bumper.  These end caps will turn your bumper into an off road stubby bumper that gives you more clearance for your tires.  With the easy to install do it yourself kit, you can reduce the width of your bumper by a full 17.5 inches in order to get that custom look and those higher approach angles you need.  The kit comes complete with instructions on cutting that are extremely easy to follow as well as all of the fasteners that you will need.  The end caps are constructed from a roto molded plastic that has a thickness of 3/16 of an inch and has been given a textured finish to match. 

Please note that for proper installation there is a necessity for both cutting and drilling.  This kit comes with a warranty for a year.
