Stand Out With Innovative Creations from ICI

Aftermarket parts and accessories serve an important function in the automotive industry. In addition to improving upon OE designs, they help us squeeze a little more performance and functionality from our stock rides. But more importantly, they help our vehicles stand out in a sea of cookie-cutter cars, trucks, and SUVs. And one brand that understands the role that unique, high-quality products plays in differentiating your ride is ICI.

Who is ICI?

Short for Innovative Creations, Inc., ICI has been a recognized name in the industry for almost 30 years. Cutting its teeth on trim accessories, the company’s product line has evolved greatly over the years, now including a range of top-quality exterior parts like bumpers, side steps, rocker panels, and chase racks.

Plus, ICI is based in Peoria, Arizona—a location known for its unique outdoor landscape that offers everything from off-roading in the nearby Sonoran Desert to camping and boating at Lake Pleasant. That means the company has ample opportunities to test out its products in a variety of real-world conditions. Conditions that have informed its manufacturing decisions—leading to a really well-built catalog of accessories featuring premium grade stainless steel and protective powder coatings.

ICI Products

The best part? ICI products are budget-friendly. With quality products at competitive prices, plus simple no-hassle installations, you can be sure your purchase is worth the time and money.

Magnum Series

Featuring a 1/8” steel outer shell that is finished in a three step powder-coat process, ICI’s patented Magnum bumper line is available in a variety styles, including full-width, pre-runner, winch/non-winch equipped, and a full grille guard option. Magnum bumpers are available for Chevy, Dodge, Ford, GMC, Jeep, Nissan, and Toyota cars and trucks and are all designed around OEM specs. That means, if your vehicle has sensors or adaptive cruise control, it won’t be an issue.

Magnum bumpers also come with different accessory variations, like shackle and lighting mount options, so you can better tailor the overall look to one that really complements your vehicle and your needs. That can also be done with a matching rear bumper, manufactured from the same heavy-duty cold rolled steel and designed to play nice with any OE sensors.

New to ICI this year is the Alumi Lite—a strong but lightweight aluminum version of the company’s bumper lineup. Constructed of double-walled aluminum, these bumper options are 65% lighter than their steel counterparts and won’t rust! They still offer all the same mounting features and OE accommodations, plus most applications come with an optional bolt-on RT Light Bracket.

RT Steps

Also part of the Magnum line, (and a great addition to any bumper) is ICI’s RT step. With a wide, drop down foot platform and a bar that sits high and tight to the body, the RT steps offer a sleek and rugged look to your truck or SUV. The diamond-plated step pad ensures solid footing, while slotted holes in the design keep water and snow from collecting.

Constructed of heavy-duty steel and proudly built in the USA, the RT steps are ready for all your heavy-duty off-road adventures.

Baja & Trophy Series

If you’re looking for something with a traditional pre-runner inspired tubular-style design, ICI has you covered there too with its Baja and Trophy series.

The Baja bumpers feature a tubular design that integrates aluminum paneling with aluminum custom washers and stainless-steel mounting hardware. There is also a fixed light mounting top plate, allowing for multiple LED options, as well as accommodations for any OE sensors. Matching side steps are available to tie the look together.

ICI Trophy Series front bumpers offer a stylish So-Cal pre-runner look in a package designed for long-travel suspension, ultimate wheel clearance, and optimal approach angles. The tubular design features a highly durable proprietary valance material that is water-jet cut for a precision fit and an included skid plate offers the protection you’d expect from an ICI bumper.

Additioanlly, all Trophy Series bumpers have a welded-in accessory mount top plate offering multiple lighting options. ICI Trophy Series bumpers can house up to a 40-inch radius bar or an array of pods and LED light bars.

Trim

We can’t forget what put ICI on the map—its trim offerings. Still some of the most durable, stylish, and affordably-priced on the market today, ICI trim accessories include form-fit bed caps and bed rail protectors, bulkhead protectors, rocker panel covers, fender trim, pillar posts, and gas cap covers.

Leader of the Pack

ICI doesn’t just engineer good-looking and durable products—it does them first. The brand revolutionized the market when it began polishing stainless steel nerf bars, at a time when other companies were using inferior chroming processes to achieve the same look. ICI was also the first to add polished stainless-steel end caps on its oval nerf bars (competitors opted for plastic) and created a “no crush” style step pad that wraps around the bar for a tighter seal.

And as trends turned toward “blacked out” appearances? ICI was ahead of that curve too, adding a unique and durable e-coating finish to its products.

Bottom line? If you seek a signature style that is proven rugged, durable, and in high demand, then it’s time to check out ICI.
