Hendrickson Bumper and Trim has released an all makes Aero Clad bumper for ProStar with universal tilt mount that retrofits all model year trucks. The design will convert any fixed mount bumper into a tilt mount configuration and is fully compatible regardless of truck model year. In addition, the ProStar Aero Clad bumper offers nearly 4 in. (10 cm) of additional ground clearance compared to the factory supplied plastic bumper and is 15 lbs. (6.8 kg) lighter than the standard plastic bumper with chrome overlay.

Hendrickson also offers a complete line of bumpers for ProStar trucks including a variety of materials, including Aero Clad and Aero Guard, and several mounting options. Aero Clad offers the look and finish of chrome, is corrosion resistant and is less weight than traditional metal. Aero Guard, injected molded resin, offers extreme durability not found in typical injected molded bumpers.
