I have 2009 chrome rear bumper, no sensors, with dual openings.

I want same but just painted. Don’t care what color as I will be painting it.

I am in NorCal 94513. Local would be best so we can just swap them out quickly.

For that shipping cost I’ll scratch and paint the chrome lol. Thanks for the bump though.

Just have your chrome one blasted then just prep, prime, block and paint. Easy!

I was hoping someone local was looking for a chrome rear bumper and we could just swap. No cash on top. Chrome for painted.

Let me know.

Do you have a local Ram Facebook group for your area. I have found those to be a good place to swap items such as this that don't make sense to ship. Will definitely reach a wider targeted audience. Good Luck!

I do have a few local Facebook pages I have posted in. I find it odd that no one wants to trade any color bumper for a nice new chrome one. I know I could charge extra, but the point is to help a member get a cool new bumper and myself to get one I can use as well (without messing up a nice Chrome one).

It is really a sweet deal for someone who wants a chrome bumper.

I am in the process of this conversion right now, picked up my painted bumpers yesterday. Just curious, any reason you are not swapping the front? A swap for both front and rear might entice the deal!

Would love to trade both. I need the front with the rectangle Fog holes. Mine has no fogs and my front is pretty old. Would still trade though.

Me and a painter buddy did a chrome 2015 Silverado, DA'd it down, sprayed two coats of epoxy, and painted it glass black. Its a fairly easy job for any bodyshop, probably take em 2 days? We did this one in one evening.

Gotcha. You might be in a trade with cash on top in that scenario. It took me a year before a good deal came around.

There are some who strip and paint the chrome bumpers. Not sure how costly that is and most importantly, how long it holds up. Good luck to ya in your search.

I think part the problem here is that you think your chrome bumper is more desirable and worth more than a painted bumper, and it’s more the other way around.

Not being a **** just trying to put things into perspective
