    just got into a fender bender and got cashed out from the other parties insurance company. Got a total of 1567$ to spend and was wondering what would be the most cost effective approach? Should I get a pelfreybilt rear bumper or color matched mgm rear bumper. I have no idea how much the total cost is for the color matched bumper. Any thoughts/feedback is appreciated. Thanks guys

    oem can get expensive. especially if there is damage to the tow package. Also with Oem you have to buy all the separate plastic trim pieces that rest on top and that can add up quickly. Shouldn't be a problem if you can re-use your old trim.

    Since my tow package was damaged, I ended up with pelfreybilt. was cheaper for me since the oem hitch is 1200 new.

    You think I can sell my row package after I get my pelfreybilt? How much you think I could get for that

    Do you mind pricing one out for me? With shopping to Hawaii. I'm thinking about the regular plate with the cutout for the cheaper reverse lights. And I'll have it powder coated here.



    Thanks everyone for their help

    Lol I wouldn't pay 1500 just for the bumper. But if you're serious about selling it I'm open to some offers.


    Trying to go t he cheapest route and save the extra cash. Kinda hurting for money right now. If the pelfreybilt works out then I'll be more than happy with that option

    Tow package can sell for about 100.

    Rear bumper from Pelfrey without a swingout is under a grand. I don't know about shipping

    If you're hurting for cash and need the extra money, browse your local Craigslist and purchase a used OEM bumper in good condition. Around here, they can be had for a few hundred used.
