Might want to look for your airbag sensors.   Not sure if that could be an issue?

Aftermarket bumpers will state if it's airbag compliance, at least ones I was looking at for my Colly

Read the reviews. Look to see if anyone has purchased the one your looking at to see if the installation was a PIA or not on you vehicle
The only man who never makes a mistake, is the man who never does anything!!
The further one goes into the wilderness, the greater the attraction of its lonely freedom.

The only electrical going thru my bumper is the block heater cord.
