Rear bumper Replacement....your thoughts...

[runnahmike]

I have just about given up the search for a OEM bumper on CL or junkyards.

I came across this on ebay, anyone have any thoughts?

Thanks!

I bought a front bumper from the same seller less than a year ago and its already rusting out. My rear bumper is rusting out badly as well but I don't trust the places on there to have quality stuff.

You could try certi-fit.com, they have places in most parts of the country. You could always go with an aftermarket off road bumper too.

Go for it, LINY bought a similar one, his looked great when i saw it. What you have to remember is that you have to coat the backsides of these bumpers so they dont rust out on you.

JohnsD90, what do you recommend coating them with?

i just bought a new lower valence and bushwacker flares from partsgeek.com. They gave me a great rate, and shipping cost $2.98.

Didnt see this question, POR 15 is the best, but as long as you spray some sort of paint or primer, or something on there it will help.
