The Ford Explorer average ($318) runs 40% above its median ($227), indicating a tail of high-priced listings — likely low-mileage or remanufactured units pulling the average up.
Our guide covers 11 model years for the Ford Explorer (2015–2025) but only 9 for the BMW 530i (2015–2025), so the Ford Explorer data reflects a broader range of generations.

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.
