OEM bumper for 05-06 sedan
OEM bumper for 05-06 sedan
I'm having trouble finding a rear wheel drive one used. All wheel drive bumpers keep coming up but I want the RWD one.
I looked on partstrain and they have one cheap but it's not OEM. Says it comes with license plate provisions and grille. OEM does not come with that since those pieces are all separate. There is the air ducts, 2 grilles, tow hook cover. There is no license plate provision on OEM bumpers.
So where can I get the OEM bumper cheaper than the dealer? Even since the earthquakes in Japan I've seen prices sky rocket. Revup motors used to be 1500 with low miles and now are 2500 and up and I'm scared.

Why do u need a rwd version so bad? the awd only has a extra front hole thats the only difference. And check with partstrain again because 9/10 ppl always list parts wrong it might be the RWD bumper your looking for
^ Where are you finding these? Only dealers or online somewhere?

^^ I totally agree. I'm pondering new front end options and I'm thinking of going with the AWD bumper and my OEM lip. Would look t1ts IMHO.
There is 2 all wheel drive ones on ebay, 1 on car-part.com. So far no RWD one.
why not get the awd one and just have the place painting it cover up the hole? Shouldnt cost you that much more than the paintjob. I hate that hole, so thats what i did with mine...

The AWD bumpers are just RWD bumpers with a whole cut out of them. There is a two piece 'finisher' part that snaps into place in the center inlet If you bought that part, you could just cut the hole out yourself and snap the piece into place.
I have to agree that the AWD bumpers look better, but I'm a little biased.
You can see it in the expanded parts illustration, but I can't seem to get a link to work. The parts are called 'front bracket' and 'finish panel'.
Anyway, sorry for contributing to the derailment of this thread.

Ya. I don't want the hole in the middle. Isn't the hole in the middle of the AWD bumper to cool the front differential? BTW that is a nice OEM sedan.
