well, disaster struck. After owning my SRT6 aero blue roadster for approx. a month. I was coming home one dark and stormy night last week and as I came off a free way I hit a traffic cone the was inconveniently on it's side with the base towards me in the middle of the lane I was turning into. I didn't see it until it was too late. cracked the bumper and took off a fair amount of paint. I thought I could get it fixed but then I noticed the passenger side fog lamp hanging down. It turns out it broke the plastic keepers that hold it in and also took out some of the inner fender lining. Looks like about $1500 to replace it. I don't suppose there's any SRT6 bumper covers floating around out there?

 

Actually they are not that bad priced straight from the dealer. You will have to order it.

or this is a good deal, not sure what shipping would be:

Good luck. James

 

Bummer. I hope that you can get it repaired! Good luck.

 

The covers can be fixed if it is not to bad. I used to see repaired ones on Ebay every once in a while.

 

I hear Canadian traffic cones are actually orange barrels....lol....eh? Kicking a man when he is down. I think the back order on the bumpers is over now. You should be able to get one, but with what you described, I don't doubt the $1500 repair bill. Good luck with it...makes you sick when it is that new to you.

 

Good luck with the repair. Given repair cost today, $1500 doesnt sound too bad.

 

Not a big deal. The bumper cover can be had on ebay for around $350. The fog light might not be as easy, but not that hard to find. I think grip grip has a pair for sale in the classifieds. Glad to hear both you and the car came out relatively ok!

p.s. You have my dream SRT-6. Aero Blue Roadster is my absolute favorite!

 

Areo Blue Pearl Cars are the fastest also..

 

I hit a fawn in mine about a year and a half ago, that's about the size of a road cone. Apparently there was a bumper shortage and something like 54 bumpers were produced. When mine was replaced there were two left in the country (actually four but one was sold at Keffer Dodge in Charlotte to a dealership in Virginia, and I have no clue where they found my replacement). I don't think anymore were produced so ebay may be your best bet. The damage and price sounds similar to my repair.

 

I think I got that last one - got it from a dealer in VA Beach; cost me a little over $450.
I ended up just fixing mine after I did almost the same thing as the OP - hit a tire "gator" at about 85, took out part of the inner fender well, passenger fog light, etc.
I have the "new" bumper cover stashed in the garage, just in case,,,,
