What year 400KQ is it? The 400 eiger was just a name change to King Quad like the 350 Bruin/Grizzly are.
Later on however the 400kq had a plastic update that could be in the way of using Eiger aftermarket add ons.

I'm fairly sure the front nudge bar is different on the 400 KQ to the Eiger. The plastic update came at the same time as the name change, along with different front brakes and a host of minor modifications. The mounting points on the frame may be the same so, if you are replacing it, an aftermarket Eiger part may fit. However, as the plastics are totally different, the new bumper will have to clear them as well. I would be a bit surprised if the aftermarket parts suppliers have not tried their Eiger "bumpers" on a 400KQ, if they had fit, they would then have advertised them as fitting both models.

No difference between a 2008 and 2015 2008 Suzuki KingQuad® 400FS 4x4 Semi-Automatic ATVs . I would think the 400 being a popular ATV would have aftermarket add ons.

Here is one for the front Suzuki King Quad 400 (2008-15) Quad Front ATV Bison Bumper Brushguard Hunter Serie - ATVenture Components Inc.

Does not look to bad either. Is that large bottom grab bar stock with the 400?

the larger diameter bar out front is not standard. available as an accessory from suzuki. looks like it would be needed to run a winch. the brush guard does look good and it is steel, the kimpex is a high impact plastic, i'm an old timer and will stick with metal. the plastic to me would be a one hit wonder!
