Buyer's checklist

What to check before buying a used rear bumper cover

  • Check the area around the trailer hitch cutout (if any) for stress cracks.
  • Confirm whether reflectors and parking sensors are included in the assembly.
  • Inspect the step pad area on truck bumpers for cracking from UV exposure.
  • Look for paint-match issues: rear bumpers fade differently than steel body panels because they're plastic.
