Mopar.biz has a decent price on them, and you're guaranteed to get the OEM one.

my friend tagged a cub black bear in his jeep last year on a logging road. he took the hit and just keep running, the scary part is that we knew mama had to be around somewhere lol.

i have a cracked front bumber by the fog light hole. so when i replace my bumper does it only come primerd and i have to get a shop to paint it red?

Yup, they don't come painted already unless you buy a used one that was on a truck.

I have a good friend in Indiana and when I was out there last December he told me that some friends of his parents came to visit not long before that (they're also from Jersey) and they hit a small black bear with their car on I-80 in Penna. The front of their car was apparently toast. :/
