It would be nice if someone could splash a mold off of these, and sell us fiberglass knock offs for $150 a set. Anyone interested?

 

Any body have a part # or know where you can order these can't find them on Parts.com.
Dealer says they don't make them any more...
Thanks for the help

Don't even attempt Parts.com, see my other posting about them.

82209208 - Bumper / List $210.00 Net 173.80

They only cost me $4 more to get them from the dealer verses Parts.com if they send the correct ones. And got them the next day.

Very nice job James. And thanks for alll the info on how to install them.

 

GREAT photos. They realy look nice on your car. I'll have to check with my dealer tomorrow. In the past I was quoted over $300.00 for the set. $173.80 is a reasonable price. Thanks for posting!

 

Can some one please post the dealer phone # that is selling them for this price...
Thanks,Derf

 

Guys, I will call my parts guy tomorrow and see if he will sell these thru the mail. When he worked at a different Dodge dealer, they were a sponser for the Durango Club Website and offered discounts on parts and shipping. He is already gone for the day. I will try tomorrow. I will ask before posting his location and phone number.

Thanks for all the comments. James

 

FP,
Put a photo up on the site when you get yours done!

 

FP, I'm waiting on you too! Can't wait to see them!

 

Ok Guys,

Good news and bad news.

I talked to my source today about the rear 'facia panels'.

Good News: The warehouse near Detroit has 22 pairs in stock. My buddy can get them overnight on the Chrysler truck.

Bad News: When this dealer does mail order, it is retail price, plus shipping. Add tax if you live in OHIO. $210 plus $10 shipping in the USA.

I asked several times about 'group buys' or special pricing and he just can't do it. The dealer he works at now is large and commercial, where his previous dealer he worked for was smaller low key trying to make all the sales they could.

So if anyone is still interested, all you need to do is call him with a credit card number between 9 am and 3 pm Eastern Time. PM me for his name and phone number as he didn't want it posted all over the internet.

He said any Chrysler/Dodge/Jeep dealer in the US should have access to these parts (#82209208) and if they say different, they don't want to help you.

Sorry I couldn't help out more on the price, but I did what I could.

Better than here in Canada, best price I could find is $280.00 + taxes $316.00 , still looking

 

Well, I took them into the shop today, and they told me they wouldn't do it because of the textured finish. They said it would not hold the paint. They would do it with no guarantee it would hold, and charge me $100. I took it to Maaco and they told me that the texture does create a problem, but they would scuff it, and prep it so it had a higher probability of holding the paint. They will charge me $50, and guarantee it. I figured this is low risk item to have Maaco do it. I should have them in a couple of weeks as I have to wait until they are painting another black car.

 

FP,
When you got these were they painted at all ??
What color are you having yours painted ??
Are you doing the install ??

 

Man... making a mountain out of a mole-hill. Do them yourself and you would have already had them on. As you said, they are a low risk item.

Buy a few Scotch scuff pads, some degreaser (etc), spray etching primer or epoxy primer and some Dupli-color black spray paint. And then some clear if you like.

Why would they need to wait for a black car? I would have laughed and walked out.

Answers in blue.

James1549, You are right, but I was concerned about painting plastic. I don't feel confident I would have done a good job. For $50, it's no big deal, and I'll get them in two weeks. I'm in no hurry. They had a couple of scratches they will fill in for me as well.

 

They advertise the rear diffussers as paintable.

 

Well, I got my diffusers back from the shop Monday. Hopefully I'll get them installed Saturday and post some pics.

 

I have my painted diffusers installed. While I like the contrast of a different color, I prefer them matching the color of the car.

 

Very nice FP. But, that license plate frame needs to go.

 

I don't think so.........You are just sore because we the Sox swept the Astros in the WS.
