Default Damaged the front bumper

I was driving along this road that always gets water over it when it rains. Culvert under road washed out and the weight of my truck caused road to cave in when I went over that section. Got towed up and out but front bumper and bumper cover on my 97 1500 Sport got wrecked. I'm having alot of trouble finding new/USED bumper and cover for 97 Sport model. I think 98 is the same but 99 and up use different mounting setup. Anyone got any info on where I can get these peices? Tried EBAY but no Sport bumpers.

sorry to hear about your wreck/accident. try lookin in a junk yard. it may need some paint if you get it from a junkyard but they have a lot of body panels for the taking.

Make the picture smaller. Which system is your computer using. You can change it to a bitmap and edit.

click on the picture and select edit. once in your editing program select image, stretch and scew. Than just shrink it until it fits the requirements of the site.
Then you have to host it on a site like cardomain. Then copy the properties and post it up.

If you have XP. There is a good chance that when you open the picture, it is in Windows Picture and Fax Viewer. If so at the bottom there are symbols to rotate and other stuff. The second from the right, beside the question mark, closes and opens for editing. Do that then at the top go to, image, stretch and skew, and then reduce the pecentages.
