Default Bumper Inserts Installed

I couldn't see over $250.00 for the inserts from the SRT8, so I purchased these from eBay. They filled the space nicely for my taste.

What inserts? Back Up Sensors? The Tailgate protector? The Mud Flaps? Guess I missed it....

I went and priced them at the dealer and they quoted me $99.00 per corner. Ridiculous!
I too got the ebay specials @ $25.00 a set. Unfortunately the ebay discription was'nt clear to me so i ended up buying 4 sets.
But that's cool...now i have a lifetime supply.

Answer...look at the corners of the bumpers where the recesses are.

Yep 99.00 at most dealers. Archer Dodge who is a supporter on one of the other boards could do for about 270.00

I purchased mine on eBay at: http://stores.ebay.com/SHOWTYMS-BRITE-CHROME-TRIMMING for less than 30.00 delivered in two days.

The OEM would be nice, but for those small strips...whoa.

Where did you get the black piece that is on top of the bumper? I would like to put something like that on my RT since this is an area that seems to be a dirt magnet.

Alright, I see them now... I thought that is what you were talking about, but the money didn't justify those things.

And you mean to tell me that they actually put these things on the SRT-8 Models? Can you request to order an SRT-8 without those things?

Not bagging on anyones likes or dislikes, just doesn't seem right to me, I would have installed those on the SE Models, not the SRT-8... As you can see from the picture below, the Bumper Inserts were on the Concept Vehicle, but they dropped them for the actual production car... I, for one, am glad for that move, but still am baffled on the SRT-8...

Oh well...

I got mine on ebay too, along with the chrome rocker panels and belt line strips. It's enough that my car does't look like a crayon anymore.
