GM Bumpers

Your original factory bumpers serve an important role if you're involved in an accident. They absorb energy in an impact, which reduces the effects a collision has on you and your passengers. Bumpers also lower the severity of pedestrian injuries that may be cause by your vehicle's body or other parts. Most bumpers today are made of either a durable acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) or more resilient polycarbonate (PC). Many have a reinforcement bar under that covering. The bar may be made of steel, aluminum, fiberglass composite, or even plastic. Bumper size matters, as well. Vehicles equipped with a smaller bumper tend to enjoy better fuel economy. Those who enjoy off-roading find that a steel bumper with a longer overhang helps protect essential vehicle parts better.

OEM Bumpers are Best

The simple truth is that your bumper will eventually show some signs of damage. Scratches, dings, and small breaks, while unsightly, aren't typically a cause for concern. If your bumper is hanging for dear life, tough, that's a different story. It's not safe. It may even be illegal to drive with your bumper in that condition. It's a simple thing to replace such a bumper, fortunately. Find the genuine GM bumper you need in our online auto parts inventory. We have plenty in stock and ready to send out.
