If your willing to wait a bit. IAG is coming out with a no drill install bull bar. Right now from what I read, it the OE style that goes in front of the Bronco letters but they are also stated that they are coming out with the low profile style too some time soon. Here's what they have. You will have to replace your you D-rings in the front like in the pic. Plan to sell it by the end of the first quarter 2025.

Thank You! The website I purchased it from doesn't have install instructions. Looking at the pics, you can see the drill is tilted and unable to drill strait down. At least they included instructions on how to remove the bumper.

Thanks for the info, that one is a little taller then we would like.

Our 2023 Bronco Wildtrak came with the capable bumper, someone has finally made a bar that is compatible with this bumper.
I believe I will have to remove the front bumper to be able to drill the holes, has anyone else done this?

Thats not a very good pic, but all I could get at the time.
I can tell you this, taking the bumper off is required. It wasnt hard at all to remove, but 4 out of the 6 holes you have to drill also require drilling through 1/4 frame steel and that wasn't that easy.
