I have a 06 Laredo and want to add front, side & rear SRT8 bumpers.
Questions:
1) Is there a way to get the rear SRT8 bumper, without having to get a new exhaust ( cant afford it ) and just attaching to stainless steal pipes so you still get the look ?
2) Im a broke college student so im gonna have to do this by parts.. Once I get the SRT8 front bumper, whats a decent price to get it painted and installed that way I have something to compare it to when I go into a shop.
The easiest and cheapest way to do the SRT bumper with the center exit exhaust is to find an SRT Jeep guy that has added an aftermarket exhaust and still has his stock exhaust. Most of them will give them away or sell very cheap. Here is the SRT8 Jeep exhaust to non SRT how to for the exhaust--
and I would bet those are oem bumpers for the $1400 price tag. Search ebay and bumper repair facilities.....you can get them cheaper. I know a forum member that got an 08 front bumper for $250.
To install the rear srt8 bumper you need the tow hitch on your bumper right? like in terms of fitting with the exhausts and such. My friend was asking this question and I told him he needs the hitch or else the bumper wouldnt fit.
Correct me if I'm wrong, I just need some clarification.
BTW, It is possible, on Non SRT8 jeeps, to keep the spare tire under, and still do the dual centered srt style tips, you just need to find an exhaust shop that is patient enough to do it.
I think I know why its so cheap.......I think it is Fiberglass and not ABS(Polyurthane). You might want to do some search because if you hit something you bumper is F$uked.

As for me I just need the front and sides because I'm just going to keep my rear bumper.
Thats strange that they are OEM then because it does not require alot of the parts that the OEM says it needs like the foam absorber and such. I hope they come unpainted too, those dont seem to have the black trim on them like the oem ones do.

ok guys....just talked to sarona.
The person I talked to told me these are exact replicas of the front/rear SRT bumpers.(BS if you ask me...but well never know untill someone buys them....LOL)
The price is $1390 shipped to the 48 states...which is about the same or more than the OEM SRT bumpers. They said you will also need everything you need to install the oem SRT bumpers. My guess is...these are OEM bumpers
