    My chrome rear bumper on my 2013 is rusted out and toast. Aftermarket chrome bumpers with the brace bar and supports plus plastics can be had for $150-$300. I’ve scoured Marketplace and the classifieds for months and haven’t found any used bumpers near me that aren’t in bad shape. The MBI (Bumpers That Deliver) bumper on Amazon has decent reviews but I know you get what you pay for. I have a feeling all these Amazon/fleabay bumpers are mass produced in a factory and shipped over here under different names and prices.

    Anyone have any current recommendations for a replacement chrome bumper or long term experience on longevity of replacements? Not interested in steel bumpers and the chrome has actually grown on me over the years.

    Which one?

    I bought one off of Amazon in December 2024. Purchased from MBI AUTO. It arrived dented and scratched,, so I returned it. I am still looking for a good bumper for <$500.
