Default Bent my bumper today...any replacements?

Hey everyone, I have a 2003 RAM Quad Cab and I wasn't thinking today as I backed into a cement column. Any cheap replacements without spending an arm and a leg? I just hope that I can replace this easy and reattach the black plastic on top of the bumper.

well, cheap isnt really an option with rear bumpers man... I got rear ended last summer in my 97 ram... dented my bumper ( totalled the guys VOLVO tho! LOL) and I searched high and low for a new bumper cheap... Found the best price online at www.autocustomizers.com, they have one that fits the new rams for about 180 bucks ( in powdercoat black)... I opted for a street scene roll pan tho... which is about 30 bucks cheaper, but much less protection if youre gonna make a habit of backin into things! LOL,, good luck man, check out the web for the best deals!

Thanks for the replies. I looked at Ebay too and looks like an OEM rear chrome bumper is good for about 215 plus 44 dollars to ship. Still cheaper then using my buddies reseller license and buying at the dealer for $373. I know if I just walked into the dealer they would charge me the normal 535 dollars!


So ordering one this week.... What I am hoping is that I can use my black plastic on top of the bumper. I don't know if the new bumpers come with new plastic on top, but if I can use mine, I hope that because my plastic is bent now, that it will reshape to the normal unbent shape on the new bumper....understand? ugh!
