Has anyone had any luck getting a new front bumper cover? Looks like I am going to need one. Betterhalf just came home with the front end of the coupe pushed in...hit something...but don't know what. Anyway, if someone has had some luck, point me in that direction, or I will start my own search for one...thanks...

 

Mine came from the dealer, had to wait a while. Maybe they are in the states now to be bought. James

 

Doc, sorry to hear about the oopsie. So, did you say out loud what was going through your mind?

 

I will call the dealer in the morning and see....thanks, James....so you have just bought one I take it?

 

I guess you did James, I see it on the car, duh!!! I haven't said it out loud yet....probably isn't worth it...but it is going back into the garage, and is off limits along w/ the roadster. Can't believe it. My son borrowes his mothers, so I let her drive mine...anyway, I need a front end....

James, what did it cost if I may ask....since this is coming out of my pocket and not insurance?

 

 

Thanks for the help James....we shall see if we can find one....

 

Doc,

I will call the Chrysler dealer near me tomorrow and see what they can do. They are a really large Chrysler dealer and from what I've heard have a really good network when it comes to parts.

 

Thanks Matt, I appreciate the help....

 

Oledoc I have a website where you can order one when I get home I will pull it from my favorites and post it for you.

 

What's the cost on the bumper I'm thinking about getting one.

 

$333.06 primed for the SRT6 version here...................

Doc, remember these come in two flavors. One with a cutout for a front mounted
license plate, and one without this cut out. I've been through a couple of these. One
torn by a piece of tail pipe a guy dropped from the bed of his pickup, and one because
it had the cutout for the lic. plate (Georgia only requires one plate on the car, front or
back, your choice) and I don't need that. All 3 were obtained through the dealership.

I only purchased two. But the shop let me keep the one with the front cutout as they
didn't want to send it back. So, I've got the one the car regularly wears, one with a
small hole and one with the front lic. cutout. I'd like to take the one with the hole and
try to make something else out of the material...

Coyote, He talking about the actual bumper cover itself, not a "bra".

thanks for the help guys, I am getting one ordered up.....it was the gas company, but the video doesn't show clearly enough that they acually hit the car, but they were all around it...they were working right next to it...wasn't the better half's fault...but not enough to accuse the gas company either...so....stuff happens....thanks again...

 

My bad... I think of that component as the "bumper". But, I guess it is
really just a plastic shell that covers the acutal bumper? This is getting
too complicated.

 

I was not aware that there were 2 versions... Mine has a front plate, but I can't see that it has any kind of cutout or molded spot for one. It has a plate bracket that is just screwed to the bumper cover. I've taken it off and it just has 2 holes drilled in it. The plate bracket is obviously designed for the bumber cover, so what is the difference? My Insurance estimating software does not list 2 either. I is confused
