I am looking into getting a bumper guard for my new 2019 Touring. I have been looking at LP Adventure Bumper Guard or Big Bumper Guard, but I'm wondering if anyone has recommendations between those, another brand, or a bull bar instead.

It does not appear that LP Adventure has guards out for the 2019 yet, so I may be interested in going with another brand sooner than later to protect against LA parallel parkers who have no morals against tapping and scuffing others' bumpers while parking.

I am also interested in protecting the most vital parts like the front / oil pan with metal skid plates if anyone has recommendations on those as well.

Also, will adding skid plates add removal expenses to regular oil changes at auto shops like Firestone?

We replaced the factory plastic skid plate with the Subaru aluminum one, we haven't done an oil change yet, but it appears the openings are the same on both, so I don't think it's going to be an issue.

I installed Rally Innovations Light Bar on my Forester 2015 and it worked very well.
They have a model available for 2019, I am looking to get it soon.

I've got the same need- bumper protection for my 2018 2.0XT touring. But I can't get anything that will interfere with Eyesight on the front and the reverse/Lane monitoring radar in the back. Any advice/what did you get?
