Rear bumpers

Post by CAN-AWD-VIBE »

Well I found out the hard way that the Vibe's back bumper is not as high as my Forester... something I already knew but subconsciously needed to prove to myself.I took the dog for a walk and backed into the parking spot... rear bumper got caught on the concrete and folded out when I pulled away. Now there are a few scratches but worst of all is that its bent out and i can't fold it back under.So now I have to look into a rear bumper. I'm not a huge fan of bodykits so I don't want the front end and side skirts. Is there a rear clip available for our car that would look good on its own? I live with lots of snow and don't need a plow. So options OEM rear bumper (boring) or aftermarket rear bumper that is cool but not so cool it needs all the other parts to make it look decent.CAN-AWD-VIBE

I'll sell you mine when I get mine replaced (bad scuffs but not bent) A new OEM will run ~$425 (that's what my estimate said anyway)as far as aftermarket goes...Full bumper - phycovibe body kit - $??? (check out some of damronjr's pics)& the rear bumper extension from Pontiac. All it does is cover the little wedge thingys and makes it look flat Good luck finding what you need. I hope this helps
