Bumpers

When you are in an accident, your bumper is your first line of defense that works to absorb some of the impact to your Ford. Your bumper is comprised of other components such as an impact absorber and a metal reinforcement bar that attaches everything to the structure of your vehicle. Aside from giving your vehicle a refined structural look, bumpers play the important role of protecting other parts and should be in good condition at all times. They help in preventing or minimizing damage to the rear and front parts of your car in low-speed collisions, as well as helping to protect important interior components such as your radiator. Contrary to popular belief, bumpers are not safety features for protecting you and your passengers from harm in case of a crash, though by absorbing shock, they can help reduce injury as an added benefit. They are typically made of plastic, steel, rubber or aluminum. The type of bumper you have will depend on what came with your car in the first place, but you can always upgrade to a sturdier option if you feel like it's needed. Of course, you will want to make replacements if the bumper has become worn down or damaged. If you are in need of a new bumper or two for your car, truck, or SUV, make sure you're only investing in OEM Ford bumpers that will fit your car perfectly.
