The bumper is made by Street Scene Part #950-70505 runs right around $350, the only thing Im trying to figure out is if it will fit my truck, it says it fits all 02'-05' Ram trucks but will not fit the SPORT model or truck equipped with a factory bumper cover. So now Im trying to figure out if my 05' SLT has a cover or not, I dont think it does but I'll have to check it during lunch today.

As for the truck pic, its on the webpage for the company that made the hood for it. www.suncoastramairhoods.com or look up the "Extractor Hood". I've been looking at these two parts for a while now so Im fairly sure they will be ordered soon....

unless you are dead set on an SRT-10 bumper, I think a different aftermarket one, or even a sport bumper would change the look alot. If you need to sport bumper brackets, you should check around at a local junkyard, they would be cheap

Me personally, I think the SRT bumper on a regular 1500 looks like ***, unless you add the other SRT body components. These vehicles have lines, front to back, and adding the oversize bumper cover breaks it up in the front - nothing lines up other than mounting points and the headlights & grill.

I think its really funny when, I saw this jacked up 04-05 QC in Boston, and the SRT bumper is like 4' off the ground. Whatever blows your skirt up, I guess.
