Very Good Value - Not Perfect But Close!
I am very pleased with this bumper overall. It is not perfect but it is definitely great value. My only complaint is that the plastic bumper pad that needs to be moved over from the old bumper (this bumper comes bare) doesn't fit as well as it does on the original factory bumper. Around the curve where the license plate depression is in the middle of the bumper, there is about a 1/2" gap but considering this bumper is less than half what one from Dodge costs, it is a good deal. The only other thing I'd mention to any buyers of this product is that you need to transfer your mounting brackets from your old bumper as well. There are some carriage style square neck bolts that hold the bumper to the brackets (Dodge part #06507391AA) that get rusty often just spin when you try to remove them. You need this special bolt because they have a very low profile and they fit under the bumper pad. The only place I could find them was the dealer and they were $17 for a pack of 5. I needed 6 so I had to buy two bags. :-/

Just order it!!
I'll admit, I had reservations about ordering this bumper. I KNEW for this money, it was from across the pond. (Who knows, maybe the OEM one was too??) Anyway, after driving the seller crazy with about half a dozen e-mails, I took the plunge and ordered it. It was supposed to be here in 7-10 days...THREE DAYS LATER, it was sitting at my front door! The box and packaging was in pristine condition (Thanks to the carrier, whoever it was), and the bumper inside was packaged well enough that he could've slowed down to 40 and tossed it out! The bumper itself was EXACTLY as original...gauge looked the same, holes in the right place, chrome plating looks fine. I ordered this bare bumper because my pad,lights, plugs..all that stuff was still in good shape, saving a few bucks. The one thing extra I did before installing it was thoroughly clean and undercoat the inside of it, only because I couldn't believe my original bumper hadn't rusted through by the way the inside looked. Seller answered ALL my questions...seemed like good folk. Now nobody can tell that I tried to back over the light pole! Go for it!!!

Small Ding - Probably from Shipping
The quality of this bumper is at least as good as the OEM. Fit perfect. Easy install using all my original attachments and bolts. One thing, it arrived with one very small but noticeable ding. It looked to be packaged well, but I can imagine It happened throwing around a box of this size and weight somewhere between China and CA. Give it six months and I'll probably have another, so I let it slide. Glad I bought it when I did. I see the price went up $60!

Excellent Replacement
I installed this in September of 2015 and it's held up very well over the winter, even with salt attacking it.The finish is very comparable to factory if not better. The fit was perfect and everything fit back together perfectly. I couldn't save a couple of the factory bolts so I installed a couple standard bumper bolts and they fit just fine under the plastic cover which went on top of these bolts. Also added anti-seize just in case I needed to remove it. Repainted the hitch while it was all torn apart, looks perfect again!

Doesn't fit like factory
You get what you pay for. My 2005 Dodge 1500 had a bumper that rusted out. An OEM bumper was $600. For the money, this bumper is ok. The finish is good. It was delivered early and packed well. None of the mounting brackets aligned with the holes and the license plate light openings had to be ground down to fit the lights. Also, the rubber top cover from the factory doesn't fit properly. With a little work, it works for me. It's not a show truck. I drive it every day but, if you want something that you can replace quickly and use all factory fittings, this is not for you

This bumper fit my 2006 Dodge Ram 1500 perfectly & went on very easily, I used the bumper pads from my old bumper & ti snapped neatly into place. Only gave it a 4-star rating because there was a long scratch on one side of the bumper when I took it out of the shipping box.

Exceeded expectations!
After calling the local junk yard and being quoted $300+ for a USED bumper, I started looking on line and found this bumper. I was skeptical because of the price difference & FREE SHIPPING but all the reviews read good so I decided I'd try it...Eureka!!! I ordered on a Tuesday nite and the bumper arrived Thursday afternoon! It was a perfect fit and looks better than the original. It took my daughter (yes, daughter, it's that easy) and I about an hour to remove and replace the bumper. If you need a bumper for your Ram - this is by far the best deal around...South Georgia at least!

Buy it!
This is excellent for the price. I paid 140 bucks free shipping! I reused all hardware, took me about one hour to replace. As other said there is 2 points that the plastic does curve with the steel of the bumper, but you canโt even really notice. Iโm impressed with the quality!
