Chroem rear bumper got dented, replacement? - Toyota 4Runner Forum

Somone backed into my chrome rear bumper on my 97 4Runner. The dents aren't bad, but they are dents and I don't like them. : )

Has another ever tried the "aftermarket chrome bumpers"? I need the middle piece and right rear. Wondering how they would match up???

Ideas?

I replaced all three pieces on my 4runner with some aftermarket bumpers and they turned out to be ok. They kinda sag a little bit probobly because i did not do it right or aftermarket bumpers just dont fit like the oem bumpers. if your gonna replace it, my opinion is your better off doing all 3 at once just in case the oems dont line up with the aftermarket ones. The chrome quality is pretty good. You just have to keep up with maintenance to keep them from rusting but being a 4runner owner you probobly know that : )

Ya, my center bumper is rusted and I ordered one yesterday of of Ebay. Will see how it fits, but I am not going to spend a lot of money on a replacement. The Toyota dealer wanted $213 for one. No way. I'll make it fit. Anything will look better than rust!

Try your local junkyard or Yotatech classifieds. You should be able to find people either parting out their car or selling their rear bumper and putting on aftermarket custom bumpers.
