First trail wounds!

Been off road several times with it but this was the first real damage. I guess I am doing it right now! Wifey is not thrilled. Any idea how much a new bumper is?

Here is the best place in the world for parts..
Certi-fit

I bought a new hood from them about a month ago for $67...

And I bought a new bumper from them about 5 years ago.. For $68 bucks and that included shipping..

Get the part number and give them a call..

You wont be sorry..

That being said.. I cruised the net and found several others for around $400 for the stock replacement bumper cover...

Did you stop and pick up the styrofoam?? If not no biggie.. When I pulled my bumper off I didnt bother .. I just put the new cover on and didnt have the foam..

Good luck..

Carl

Got the foam. I brought everything home. I don't leave anything on the trail. Although with the wife yelling at me I almost left her there. I will check them out for the parts!
Thanks!

dude, just keep it off and enjoy the tougher look (that metal strip is the real bumper) ... but then again, if the wifey is not happy, no one is (or so I've heard...)

You have no idea how true that statement is.

Hey, I agree 100% with that statement! But I already have a laptop, and hey, I think Im gonna lift and armor the bottom before I get the ARB ... but never fear, IT IS COMING!!!!

Thanks!

Keep the computer, trade the wife....

Don't tell her I said that, it'll only get us both in trouble!
