🛡️ Kemimoto Brushguard Front Bumper, Compatible with Polaris Sportsman 570 (2015-2016) & Sportsman 450 (2020), ETX 2015, 2879714 Review

Bumper looks good for the money - half the price of a Polaris branded version. Everything was well powder coated. Fastening material (screws, nuts) is made of stainless steel and fits. My main complaint was that there were no installation instructions. I had to rely on youtube videos which are not very helpful but provide enough information to figure it out.

After reading online reviews of similar products I chose Kemimoto because I had free returns with Prime. The bumper could have been better packed, the paint had scratches. As with others the instructions are terrible so check out the online videos. A pleasant surprise was that the nuts and bolts are stainless steel. It would be nice if they included stainless steel washers. Fits and looks good with some adjustments.

DO NOT align mounting bolt holes with Sportsman holes. It's totally impossible to fit this device or the ones this company sells for the rear bumper on a 450, but the description clearly says it's compatible. I was excited to get the bumpers but they turned out to be a waste of my time, effort and money. Companies that don't bother to actually TEST their products before making claims are one of the main reasons uncontrolled capitalism is destroying our economy. I am extremely disappointed.

I read the reviews beforehand and bought it anyway despite knowing better. I'm only 40, have good eyesight and good mechanical skills so I thought how bad can that be? Well the instructions are terrible. Literally a sheet of paper the size of a playing card with an image of a bumper on it. The hardware is terrible. The screw holes are HUGE to account for all the manufacturing waste and there are no washers so only the tips of the hex screws grip the edges of the holes. So you need extra large…

Let's set realistic and even expectations before we get overly critical. As a consumer, what do you really expect? I installed this on my 2020 Polaris 450. Of course (CONS): 1) the instructions are tiny (the size of the palm of my hand), 2) very little help with installation (just a few arrows), 3) the holes don't line up exactly (but with very little effort/muscle). can be made to work) and 4) not perfectly aligned upon completion. by the manufacturer, 2) took 15 minutes to install, 3) looks…
