Danny G Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 OK gents, I have to replace my front bumper and I want to do it with the factory push guard bumper with impact strips. I can buy everything I need from various sources with the exception of the outside impact strips. See red circle below. Anyone got a line on these or a JY/donor with them?

ArdWrknTrk Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 Is the hole pattern really changed from the normal XLT trim? If it butts up against the guard, couldn't you just cut the ones that usually go all the way across? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArdWrknTrk Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 Not sure, but its possible. You have a line on those? No, not really. But I figured it would be easier (and less expensive) than trying to find some oddball piece that only came on a thousand trucks that year. I did see these though:. https://www.ebay.com/i/223509230302?chn=ps&norover=1&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-117182-37290-0&mkcid=2&itemid=223509230302&targetid=809744313585&device=m&mktype=pla&googleloc=9003428&poi=&campaignid=6470661093&mkgroupid=80120008480&rlsatarget=aud-622524042958:pla-809744313585&abcId=1141156&merchantid=8563174&gclid=Cj0KCQiAno_uBRC1ARIsAB496IWAoS0pwdSJVvI9rcI0B-IHKGPz8wQ2U04BPR-jee7j4Gys9g3TcygaAjBBEALw_wcB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would buy it if I had a line on the impact strip. No point in buying these if I cant have a complete bumper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
