Default New 2012 Ultra Limited

Calling out to all 2012 Ultra Limited purchasers - Did you or did you not have the front bumper on the the front fender at purchase? I have the black bumper on the rear but not on the front and I am wondering if it is suppossed to be there - my buddy has it in his 2010 Ultra Limited.

Thanks for any and all feedback.

This can seem confusing. The 360 degree view had it on there, but the photo,s did not. I dug deep and ended up emailing the MOCO. It does not come on the 11. I am sure the 12 is the same.

Looks better without it. I'd also take the rear off and replace it with the rear fender support from the Street Glide.
