Buyer's checklist
What to check before buying a used front bumper cover
- Inspect for hidden cracks behind the paint, especially near fog light openings and tow hook covers.
- Confirm the cover matches your trim — front bumpers differ significantly between base, sport, and luxury trims.
- Check that sensor holes (parking sensors, radar) match your vehicle's equipment level.
- Look at the mounting tab areas along the top and sides. Broken tabs mean the cover won't sit flush against the fenders.
