Place that sells Grilles & Bumper pads?

Where is a good place to find a 2007 Grille (like a chrome or painted one) and the top front bumper pad?
I found a grille or 2 on ebay but no bumper pads.

I'd like to upgrade the front end of my XL.

Do they make a chrome bumper pad or do I have to find a white one?

Thanks guys! I still feel helpless with this Ranger stuff.

My front end looks like this one.
I wanted a painted or chrome grille & i've seen some painted bumper pad's (where the red arrows point) & i didnt know if there was a chrome one available.
And where to get them?

Its called a valance, not bumper pad. You can get a lot of parts from Certifit, they have a website certifit.com. Check it out.

i think he wants the bumper chrome not the valance actually

the grille you can get an 06+ all chrome, or you can get one all painted from 06+...

I have a grille on ebay not the one RangerJustin did the link to. Mine was taken off my XLT at less than 500 miles. Make me an offer.

Just lettin' ya'll know.....06+.....what your lookin' at....is a BUMPER COVER. There's an actual metal bumper under the cover....

And the only chrome on 06+, is the grille(on XLT's) and rear bumpers(on XLT's).

^no. (not yet at least.)










The bumper cover is held to the actual metal bumper using push pins. I found this out trying to install Light Tabs on an 07.....no way it would mount like 98-05's.
