Default Bumper Replacements

well this winter, the rust took more victims on my truck.

I had to replace me rear driver side door (Ext cab)
Salvage yard had a user black one off a 05 from Texas, No rust. Came with window and interior panel. Easy swap.

Then it took my rear bumper to.
Ordered
Step Bumper (Primed)
Step Pads
Brackets

Also got a new Front Cover Primed with Fog holes.

Plan to get the bumpers done in bed liner, especially the steel before it goes on. Got new pads as mine are faded and there were not to much.

I picked up a used rear bumper and sprayed it with bed liner myself.

I redid my current one myself, before it rusted so bad. But it didnt last, so Im going to pro route with the bedliner now, since its new not much prep either. All the used stuff here is usually rusted up already to. I got lucky with the door as it came from texas.

Still havent got it done yet, got the new bumpers here now. But i need tires now, all mine are toast, all 12 of them haha

Lemme know how the bed liner job looks on your bumper and front fascia... I gotta give my rear bumper some love, plus I replaced my front fascia over the winter with one that's primed and trying to decide if I should match the body or go bed liner as well.
