I always liked to use my stout bumper kinda like a blind man uses his cane and I dont see that working with what you have now. Plus I think it takes away from the HD look you had going.

BUT...
The cow catcher up front wasn't working out, so I changed it.

The approach angle that has been gained will far out weigh the thump and bump method of wheeling tenfold out on the trail.
