Default Good place to find cheap bumpers

So Geico wrote me a check for the accident I was in and now I'm looking for a replacement bumper. I would like to get one cheap so I can pocket the rest of the money. Right now I'm looking at the V6 rear bumper (going with dumps) from bumpers.com for $424 painted. Anyone want to sell me there rear bumper off your sixxer?

Anyone know of some other places to purchase one?

ebay usually has some pretty good deals on OEM bumpers. i know a few guys got pre painted cobra bumpers from ebay for 400 something and they matched pretty good and fitment was good too

If your looking for cheap I would say ebay but if you don't mind spending the whole 424 then I would get it from Bumpers.com. I was going to get my replacement from them but I actually ended up getting a better deal buying one from a ford dealer in a small town while away at college. Bumpers.com is $424 painted black and shipped.

I got a front gt bumper primed painted, cleared, and shipped for 260 off ebay

there are a lot of guys doing this on ebay, just take a good look at thier feedback, some are sketchy, some are honest. the paintjob i got was about a 9/10.

'll keep checking ebay then. The paint doesn't have to be flawless, just look good. As long as it looks better than it does now.

I tried there, but it looks like they are gone. I'm going with the company on Ebay. All the bumpers are shaved with no MUSTANG. So I'm going to be dumping my exhaust, getting the V6 bumper with no letters for about $380 shipped and painted.

that's a screamin deal. LMK if you need install help. Takes about 10 minutes but you have to know what to unscrew or it takes a while to figure out.

Good stuff. I should have the bumper within a week or two. I'll have to go to the muffler shop to get my exhaust dumped and fix a bit of a leak on the midpipe flanges.
