Those were all prices from CertiFit's Minnesota catalog (thanks goes to Viper for the tip, BTW).

Yeah, like I said, I actually went to a salvage yard. They didn't have any Rams with undamaged front ends, but they did have the aftermarket parts. Ended up costing me just under $300 I believe it was for parts. The lower plastic piece didn't fit 100%, but close enough that its nothing a couple of bolts, washers, nuts, and a drill can't fix on the next warm day (probably March/April).
If you're patient, unlike me, probably be cheapest to get parts from CertiFit.

Yeah, that lower pad didn't fit quite right. I finally got it adjusted, and there's a slight gap here and there. I'll put some permatex in there once it dries up around here.

I am so fing pissed right now...anyone know what a front bumper will cost me for my truck?!?
I was going up the offramp with snow on the ground and decided I better shift to 4wd...didn't feel ANY lost of traffic. Came to the stop side and SLOWLY applied the brakes...did not stop and hit the guard rail, MOTHER *#&$^ #*&(*@*&!
Bumper pushed in and my NEW BRUSH GUARD is shot...insurance won't pay for the guard. I have a 250 deductible but I can't see the bumper costing me that much and I replace it myself for the labor.
Any help would be great.

Back to the insurance thing, idk about ur insurance but, Coca-cola dropped a coke machine on my driverside rear quarter panel right under the back window and i went to Dodge who quoted me $1500 they cut me a check and i just used it to pay bills lol. I can get it fixed by a bud for like $200. So some insurances pay u not the shop, just my two cents.

that is true but your situation is slightly different. you were not at fault. if you are not at fault the other insurance company generally will just cut a check because then they are no responsible for more damage found, on any hand I just need to ask my insurance. just gotta make sure they don't open a claim on me from asking...they tend to do that and that is exactly NOT what I want to happen.

wow more than half these postings is just from me! 
must be a way i can vent! Was doing a radom search only for bumper plans for dodge ram and came across of these...pretty nice if you ask me.
Need to find someone that do the work for me so i can price it out. I can do the painting and installing need someone to do the fab work.
