Backed into a concrete pier in the Autozone parking lot...just in my blind spot and was in a hurry so my bad...definitely tested the 5mph rating! for a $2 grommet...

Now I get to replace it. It's a factory bumper with the backup sensors in it, and room for the tow receiver below it. The frame appears fine, it was mashed just inside of the driver side attach strut and didn't crumple any body parts I think it might be a straightforward remove and replace.

Thoughts on a replacement? A quick review of the different options is frankly mind-boggling...

:eek: I dunno what that Flex-n-Gate outfit does exactly, but the owner is sure on top o the world. Bought the dolphins recently. He also looks like a hold-over from the "disco don" era but at least he's got hair... not sure I want to do the dumpster dive on his outfit! He might have some 'help' that's bigger than me.:lmao
