    Backed into a trailer with diamond plating on rhe corner, need help.

    I sent @Roman a message and I have not received a reply ( I may be a bit impatient ). Can anyone set me up with painted replacement pieces ? D20170503_171327.jpg rivers side bumper end and the piece right above it

    Roman is on vacation starting today. Will be back next week. That's why he hasn't answered. Sorry about your damage. Be patient young Padawan.

    I've checked several sites and all of they sell is "paint to match" or chrome. It would probably just be cheaper to get them painted/touched up since it doesn't look like they are damaged.

    I bought a pre-painted fender once. Never again. 1st one they sent wasn't even close. They did send a replacement which was closer but still no cigar. Ended up having to have it painted anyways. I'd suggest just having it painted at a local shop.

    I don't think there is really any such thing as a perfect match. Paint shops can do blending which hides minor differences.

    It is actually pretty deep, hard to tell in the picture. I think @Roman gets them from the factory. I found a thread of his and it's just over $100 for the bumper end cap, not sure about the piece above it though.

    $117 for 4 oz of paint, 1 quart of clear, and the hardener, and another $100 to have it repaired and painted.
    The work will be done this weekend and I will post some pics then.
