This is my setup so far!
Things might change in the future but so far, I’m pretty happy with it!
Before anyone says anything I know a lot of the items I got were a bit extra and that cheaper alternatives are available but, this is one “big” tax splurge/birthday present!
I'm going to do my best to keep this up to date as things develop!
Cage/Perches
C&C Outdoor Large Cat Cage Enclosure - 4/5
So far I love this cage! With the set up pictured above, I actually ended up with extra panels to expand further in the future.
This cage offers a lot of versatility and would be great for odd shaped spaces or tight spaces that might require a little bit more creativity!
As far as durability goes, I would say that is pretty average for a C&C cage. With that being said... USE THE ZIP TIES! Or invest in additional wire cage supports or else the first time you move it... it will fall apart!
Pros
Weight - Light weight, easy to move and and tare down!
Price Point - Affordable and way cheaper than traditional bird cages of the same size!
Versatility/Customization - This is a build your own cage set! You can go wild and pretty much do whatever you want!
Add-ons - Because this is a C&C cage there are a lot of options for expansions and a lot of add-ons (ramps, doors, patios, etc) that can be bough!
Cons
Durability - So long as your using extra supports the durability isn't an issues. Without the supports... this is going to fall apart the first time you move it!
Bar Spacing - The bar spacing on this is large! 1.65" (4.1 cm). Because of the bar spacing your going to need to get a 2" Fender Washer in order to attach most standard bird accessories. An easy fix but something to be aware of!
Cleaning - Because this cages relies on joints there are plastic pieces that jut into the cage and run the risk of being pooped on. If they are pooped on... You will have to take apart a large chunk of the cage and remove the joint to clean it... It's a pain in the ass.
Corrugated Plastic Cage Liner Base 3/5
This works just as intended! It keeps what it needs to in and what it needs to out! It can be laid flat, and folded for storage if need be.
Pros
It works! Keeps poop and seed inside!
Cleaning - Easy to wipe down and poop doesn't seem to stick to the surface! Water and weatherproof is also a plus!
Cons
Price Point - I, admittedly, did not do my research before purchasing this base! This could have easily been made for about half the price from a local hardware or craft store with a sheet of Corrugated Plastic and either some hot glue or, if I wanted to get fancy, some Plastic Chicago Screws.
Cleaning - While the outside is easy enough to clean, corrugated plastic is hallow-ish on the insides and is IMPOSSIBLE to clean! To avoid dust build up you can use a length Rubber Edge Trim along the top! Make sure you check the with of your Corrugated Plastic before buying any trim.
Perch 4/5
It's a perch, it do what it do. Nothing super exciting.
Pros
It works as intended!
Cons
The shorter perch was NOT pink, lol. Not important to most people but it is important to notes that its defiantly more orange.
Lining/Hammock - 5/5 (I'm bias because I made them, lol!
The lining is simply two pieces of Anti-Pill Plush Fleece sewn to size! Anit-pill fleece is stain resistant, easy to clean and soft to the touch!
Pros
Price Point - Much cheaper then pre-made linings!
Reusable - Simply wash and reuse! No reoccurring monthly expense for something like puppy pads!
Customizable - Make them any color or all the colors!
Easy to Make - For real! Sewing a full bottom lining takes me about 30 mins from start to finish! If sewing isn't your think you could do it tie blanket style or simply cut a piece of fabric to size and call it good!
Food/Water
3 in 1 Cat Bowl - 5/5
I love this this feeder! Not only is it super cute but, it allows you to lock the bowls in place, preventing them form moving. The angled sides of the bowl also really help to keep seed where it should be! This is super easy to clean and the fact that it has two bowls and a gravity feed water dispenser makes it perfect for pigeons!
Pros
One stop shop - because of the two bowls and the separate water dish this works great for offering see, grit and water all separate!
Bowl Position - This feeder has a star shaped grid in the bottom that allows you to change the position of the bowls. This allows you to turn the bowl so the raised edge is facing the water dish preventing water from getting into your grit and feed!
Cons
Seeds under bowl - Because the bottom of the bowl holder is open if there are seeds under it the bowl becomes difficult to lock into place. Not a big deal but it can be annoying to deal with!
Water riser - The water dish has a white, circle riser that is open in the center. It's not a huge deal, Mango got use to it after his second attempt, and it's totally removable!
Toys/Enrichment
I'll make this part short and sweet, lol!
Mango doesn't care at all about anything but his Brick. Bitches love bricks.

"I've nothing much to offer
There's nothing much to take
I'm an absolute beginner
And I'm absolutely sane"
#TGS #D11
Saved my self a few bob, I did. A couple o’ quid left in me pocket.
Got an appraisal a week or so back. 500 plus they wanted.
And, being them a body shop — it was a fair price. But…
500 bens for a bent-up truck’s fender?
It’s just the bloody holes of the rubber fender bit had stretched out passed where the bolts could hold to the frame o’ the beast.
So…
A few bucks for a small packet of washers,…

Critter Nation Cage Mod How-To
I’ve seen too many good web pages disappear so I’m reposting this cage mod how-to description from AcroRATics here. You can follow this link to see the main picture post.
by AcroRATics Mar 26, 2015
The most difficult part of the project by far is getting the PVC section to fit into these flanges.
These toilet flanges are tapered on the inside and are designed to wedge at the end of PVC pipe but never let it slip all the way through. If you can find a more suitable flange that would be great but we have not found one. These need to be sanded extensively on the inside or the pipe will not fit. This is serious work, and my friend recommends either an oscillating sander or a lathe for this task. But don't sand too much or the pipe will not fit tightly enough. The flanges are available in both white and black plastic, and we found that the white flanges were made of a material which was easier to sand, so I will recommend you go with those if you can find them. It will also take a good bit of muscle to force the flange down the pipe, and a rubber mallet will be useful.
You'll need a small piece of regular straight 4" schedule 40 PVC pipe. I got a two foot section from the hardware store, which was sufficient. The piece shown is exactly 8 inches long. It is difficult to make a clean, straight cut with a hacksaw, so a band saw or circular saw is recommended.
Once you're convinced that you can make the flanges fit, place the section of pipe next to the cage at the height you would like the mod to go, and mark the bars which will need to be cut. We cut exactly nine horizontal bars on each cage. A square shaped hole will be created. My friend used a Dremel tool with a cut-off wheel attachment rated for metal to make the cuts.
The two flanges are tightened together with 5/16" hex bolts (1.5" long) and nuts and washers. When the attachment is complete, there should be small sections of pipe sticking out evenly on each side.
The tube construction is comparatively simple. This is where I purchased the clear tubing.
http://www.usplastic.com/catalog/item.aspx?itemid=32528&catid=440
The 4.5" OD size fits perfectly into the hubs of 4-inch PVC fittings, but it was the most expensive component of the project. The minimum order is 6 feet and that cost me $81, including shipping. Wrap the cut site of the tubing with painter's or masking tape to help prevent shattering. Cut the tubing to length with a band saw or circular saw, preferably one with a higher speed and a blade with teeth that are closer together. Glue PVC couplings to each end of the finished tubing with PVC cement.
The entrances were created the same way as with the cages, but instead of cutting cage bars, you will need to cut the plastic. The hole for the PVC pipe section was cut using a hole cutter Dremel attachment. The PVC section used was only 6 inches long because none of it sticks out past the flange on the inside of the tote. The pilot holes for the bolts were cut with a power drill and a 5/16" spade bit. The tote has a slight taper to its sides, and this was offset by adding a couple washers on the outside of the box on the bottom two bolts (as pictured) and mirrored on the inside of the tote for the top two bolts.
Here, Brodie demonstrates the the load bearing 5/16" all-thread going through the tote. The all-thread is held in place with 5/16" fender washers and nuts which are secured permanently to each side of the tote with gorilla glue to spread the load.
The digging box is suspended by chain and attached to ceiling studs with eye hooks and quick links. We made sure all suspension components could bear at least 50 pounds for good measure (a system with 4 chains rated for 50 pounds each should be able to hold up to 150 pounds). The all-thread can be slipped through one of the chain links to bring the box to the appropriate height.
To provide better ventilation, the lid to the tote was cut open with a Dremel tool using a cut-off wheel rated for plastics. Half-inch hardware cloth was cut to size and secured to the lid with nuts, bolts, and washers on each side. A spade bit was used to make the pilot holes for the bolts.
Since I posted the album of my rat cage setup here http://imgur.com/a/Veliu I've had a number of people ask how they can recreate it. Although this is not a complete step-by-step guide, this album hopefully provides a few additional details on its construction.
Disclaimer: We have only created this setup once, and I cannot guarantee your success, your mileage may vary, etc. Some steps are difficult and you will need power tools and probably access to a work shop. Questions can be PM'ed to Reddit user AcroRATics.

C2 Corvette Gets a Complete Cooling System Overhaul
The cooling system in a C2 Corvette has plenty of faults, even in the original configuration, and when you start modifying the engine the problems only get worse. The constant struggle to stay cool has created anxiety in thousands of Corvette owners, as one eye is always glued on the temperature gauge. The subject in this cooling system overhaul is a small-block car backed by a manual transmission and 4.11 gears. The healthy small-block and low rearend gears made for big fun, but anything over 55 mph for more than a few minutes resulted in overheating issues. A five-speed transmission helped matters tremendously by bringing the cruising rpm down, but it didn’t completely reduce the temperature anxiety. A generic aluminum radiator and electric fan also seemed to help, but it didn’t fit the car well enough to be considered a permanent solution.
The car’s previous cooling system eliminated the original expansion tank system. While the universal aluminum radiator was simple and effective, it was a little too tall for the car, making the hood clearance too close for comfort. The radiator hose placement also wasn’t ideal and it just didn’t have the right look. In an effort to cool this low-geared hot rod Corvette, we decided to start from scratch with a new radiator from DeWitts, a new fiberglass fan shroud from J&D Corvette and a box full of cooling system goodies from Zip Corvette.
Going from cobbled together universal parts to a selection of direct-fit parts made for an easy install. It was more work to undo the universal components than it was to install the new pieces. Everything fit as advertised and the assembly process was simply a matter of bolting factory-type pieces together, a task that we handled over the course of a few evenings in the shop. The improved stock-look aluminum radiator and flex fan is certainly capable of cooling this modified small-block, as we have been pleased to see the temperature gauge staying at 180 degrees. In addition to the improved cooling capabilities, the new components cleaned up the engine bay nicely. Take a look at our cooling system overhaul and use the tips and tricks to keep your C2 cool, whether it’s on the highway, sitting in traffic or blasting down your favorite backroad. Vette
1. When our 1964 Corvette coupe rolled into the garage it had a functional cooling system, but the generic aluminum radiator didn’t offer proper fitment. It was physically too tall for the car and the hose outlets were not quite right.
2. The original fan shroud was in pretty bad shape before the universal-fit radiator was installed, but you can see where modifications were necessary to accommodate the radiator hose outlets.
3. After draining the fluids and undoing the less-than-desirable cooling system repairs, we were ready to remove the generic radiator, electric fan and hacked-up shroud.
4. Since our new DeWitts radiator is a direct-fit piece, we whipped out the Zip Corvette catalog for some standard replacement parts. First up was a pair of new radiator cushions (PN WS-333) that fit into the original lower radiator mounts.
5. The radiator is DeWitts’ HP Series (PN 1249063M), which features all-aluminum construction and two rows of 1.25-inch tubes and offers 25 percent more cooling capacity than stock replacement radiators. We ordered ours in the “Black Ice” coating for an original look. The original-style dowels fit nicely into the new rubber cushions.
6. We grabbed a new radiator and shroud center bracket (PN M-259) from Zip, along with a new upper cushion (PN WS-436). We slid the cushion over the original-style tab on the radiator and then loosely installed the two bolts to hold the radiator upright.
7. It would seem natural to install the fan shroud next, but we found that installing the lower radiator hose is much easier without the shroud in the way. The radiator hoses came from RockAuto.com, but you can get them at many Corvette parts suppliers.
8. Now we can lower the J&D Corvette fiberglass fan shroud into place. Before installation, we sanded it and applied two coats of semi-gloss black paint to match the rest of the engine bay.
9. After getting it dropped into place, we installed bolts and nuts in the factory positions. Make note that the original steel shroud had built-in nuts, while our J&D Corvette replacement does not, meaning that it requires pass-through bolts and attaches with nuts and washers.
10. We tightened the side mounting bolts and then tightened the radiator and shroud center bracket bolts. That allowed us to accurately drill the hole for the only remaining fastener. After it is drilled, we install the bolt, nut and washers.
11. Final adjustments can be made to align the center bracket and then the bolts can be tightened.
12. Our six-blade flex fan can be re-installed using the existing hardware. We removed the electric fan, as the new cooling system is more than adequate for this modified Corvette.
13. Any time the cooling system is taken apart it’s a good time to replace the thermostat. It’s cheap and easy to install since you’ve already drained the coolant. We went with a 180-degree thermostat.
14. Our upper radiator hose was a little long so we trimmed it with tin snips until the fitment was perfect.
15. With the upper radiator hose installed—and the dust and our fingerprints wiped off—the new DeWitts radiator and J&D Corvette fan shroud look like factory fresh pieces.
16. Now it’s time to move onto the expansion tank. Since our previous radiator did not use an expansion tank we had removed the mounting straps and bracket. We got a new bracket (PN M-235A) from Zip Corvette and attached it to the inner fender using new bolts.
17. Next are the expansion tank straps (PN M-235). The straps are not pre-bent so we did some trial and error fitment to get an idea of the correct shape. After getting them dialed in, we attached the lower portion of the straps to the bracket.
18. The new DeWitts expansion tank (PN 421) is an exact reproduction of the original Harrison tank. We still had to do some final tweaking on the straps, and then installed the new strap bolts from Zip.
19. Another cheap and easy step for a cooling system overhaul is installing new heater hoses. You can buy the hose in bulk at the local parts store or you can buy the correct stamped hoses from any Corvette parts supplier. We opted for the parts store hoses and installed them with new clamps.
20. Another piece from the Zip Corvette catalog is this heater hose T-fitting (PN M-207). It connects the upper heater core hose to the expansion tank and allows free coolant flow from the water pump.
21. One last trip to the parts store yielded us some new heater hose fittings for the water pump and the intake manifold. We coated the threads with pipe sealant before threading them into place.
22. Although it is rather bulky, this 90-degree fitting is a much better piece than some of the chrome-plated aftermarket versions. We removed the valve cover to give us a little more room to tighten the fitting.
23. We spun the fitting until it was facing the front of the car and then trimmed the heater hose for a nice fit. Next, we trimmed and installed the lower heater hose.
24. Finally, we installed 3/8-inch hose from the expansion tank to the radiator, as well as a 3/8-inch overflow hose.
25. With a combination of parts from DeWitts, J&D Corvette and Zip Corvette, we completely overhauled this Corvette’s cooling system and gave it a super clean look. The final step was pouring a fresh mixture of coolant and water into the expansion tank and taking it for a spin … and 180 degrees never looked so good!

BEST BUMPER INSTALLATION SERVICE IN AUSTIN TX
AUSTIN BUMPER INSTALLATION
How to install your bumper system
Bumper Installation Service near Austin TX: If you've recently become the new owner of a rear bumper system, you may not know how all of the different pieces fit together to mount to your chassis. Whether it's KG, they all typically have similar pieces. OTK is essentially the same process, but will differ slightly with their parts.
● You'll begin by installing the two mounting posts to your chassis . The key to securing the two mounting posts to your chassis starts with installation outside of the chassis. In your hands, drop your smaller washer into what will become the outside of the mounting post, drop the larger washer into what will become the inside. Now drop your 10mm bolt through the two washers and mounting post beforehand tightening the rubber (with threading on the inside) to your bolt. You should have one sold piece now that you''ll mount to your chassis.
● To finish installing your mounting posts to your chassis, grab a 17mm wrench or socket on an impact and tighten the piece to your chassis tube .Nice and tight will do, you don't have to set any world records for strength. You'll do this for both sides, left and right, before we head into the next segment.
● The next piece to install is what you'll eventually mount your rear bumper to, it's the rear bumper support . Supplied typically with a short 8mm bolt, washer, and nut, you'll fasten your support to your post solidly. After successfully mounting both your right and left supports solidly to your posts, we'll move on to the next segment, mounting the bumper.
● You'll notice on the bumper a pair of elongated mounting holes. Line those holes up with your support holes and press the bumper to your supports. Now it's time to grab your hardware, which should typically be an 8mm bolt with washer and nut, and tighten your bumper to your supports . Again, you don't need to show off your strength, but make sure it's nice and solid; you don't want the bumper to move side to side. Your entire system should be nice and tight at this point. However, it is common to see the support loose on the post. You can loosen the support by taking a couple of turns out, but still keeping the bolt within the nylon of the nut so that it doesn't vibrate out while on track. This will free up the rear end and allow it to flex more in certain conditions.
What is a Bumper?
Bumper Installation Service near Austin TX: A vehicle’s bumper is a protective part of the automobile that is mounted to both the front and rear ends of the car. Typically crafted from aluminum, plastic, rubber, or steel, the bumper acts as a shock absorber during low-speed collisions. It also aids in reducing more significant damages made to your vehicle. While some types of bumpers are made from foam that acts as a kind of cushion, others have energy absorbers or brackets that serve the same purpose.
Do Bumper Guards Really Work?
● Collisions happen even if you’re a careful driver. If your car is rear-ended or damaged in a parking lot, the other person can drive away without much risk. To prevent damages that may not be covered by car insurance, many people use bumper guards to protect their vehicles.
● Bumper guards are vertical bars or foam pads that can be placed on either the back or front of your car. They’re usually easy to install and remove, but are they worth it? Let’s look at the pros and cons of utilizing a bumper guard.
They protect your vehicle
Bumper Installation Service near Austin TX: If you have to park in a crowded street or in a cramped garage, there’s always the possibility that someone may hit the back of your car. You could also end up damaging your vehicle yourself if you don’t have enough room to back out of a parking space. A foam guard will give you a little cushion to absorb damage. It can also protect the front end of your vehicle by minor damage caused by fender benders.
3 Benefits of Installing a Heavy-Duty Bumper on Your Vehicle
If you need to select a bumper for your commercial truck or pickup, you may want to consider the benefits of a heavy-duty model. Heavy-duty bumpers outperform lightweight models in several categories including collision protection, longevity, and durability. To learn more about the benefits of a weightier model, look over this convenient guide.
Why Choose a Bumper?
1. Collision Protection
You will find large, robust bumpers on vehicles like ambulances, fire trucks, and commercial vehicles for a reason. A bumper’s most important duty lies in collision protection. Thus, bigger, more resilient ones will always offer greater performance in this arena. Heavy-duty bumpers absorb impact better than thinner models, thereby keeping the truck and individuals inside safe from harm.
2. Longevity
heavy-duty bumper Heavy-duty bumpers are often constructed from high-quality steel, which is built to endure for decades. While less robust models may suffer wear and tear over the years and eventually need replacement, a heavy-duty bumper will continue to serve your needs. Off-roaders who demand rugged features that will hold up in the face of mud, rocks, and debris will also greatly benefit from a sturdier bumper. If you want a lasting investment, opt for the durability heavy-duty models offer.
3. Economic Savings
While heavy-duty bumpers may cost more initially, they offer significant economic savings over lightweight models in the long run. Since heavy-duty bumpers very rarely need replacement, you won’t have to worry about additional expenditures as the years pass. Furthermore, these bumpers protect against serious and costly vehicular damage.
TIPS
Bumper Installation Service near Austin TX: This is one of the less complex mechanical jobs that you can perform on your car, and it can be attempted by even those with the most basic of technical knowledge. All you need to complete this task is a spanner set, a socket and ratchet set, some wire clippers, a Phillips and a flat-head screwdriver and two wheel ramps to help you elevate your vehicle and you’re ready to go.
● Locate and Unscrew the Bumper Cover
There are two parts to the front bumper. The first is the painted cover that matches your car’s color scheme. This is sometimes referred to as the bumper, but is actually concealing the real bumper underneath. To replace the bumper you will need to remove this first. Open the car bonnet and remove the screws that hold the cover in place. These can be found above the grill.
● Unclip the Bumper Cover
It’s now time to unclip the bumper cover from its position. Look underneath the front side of the part and locate the plastic clips that hold it in place. Carefully use the flat head screwdriver to pry these out of position. This should leave a clip exposed. This clip attaches the bumper to the body work, and needs to be cut with your clippers. Finally pull the bumper cover away from the car and place it on a blanket or towel to prevent it from getting scratched or damaged.
● Bumper Removal
After driving the car up the wheel ramps so that the front of the car is elevated, use a body board to go under the front of the car and find the bolts along the upper edge of the bumper. Use your spanner set to remove the bolts, and use the socket and ratchet set to remove the tensioning rods that sit on either side of the bumper. Make sure you store all the bolts in a safe place for reattachment, and then take the old bumper away from the car.
● Replace the Bumper
Place the bumper on the frame of the car and thread the bolts through the holes in the part to hold it in place against the frame. Then simply reattach the nuts to the bolts and tighten so the bumper is flush against the bodywork before finally reattaching the tensioning rods. You’re now ready to drive the car down the ramp and get to work on replacing the bumper cover.
● Reattach the Bumper Cover
Retrieve the bumper cover from its safe storage space. You will need to replace the clips that you destroyed in step 2 with new clips or the bumper cover will flap in the wind. Simply put the cover in place and lock it in position before reattaching all the necessary clips. When this is completed and the part is firmly held against the bumper simply reattach the screws under the grille and your car is good to go.
COST
How much does it cost to install a bumper?
Bumper Installation Service near Austin TX: In the worst scenario, because of high damage, a replacement will be made. A replacement of a bumper will cost you around $300 – $700. If sensors, lights, cameras or any other component are damaged, then you can expect an increase in overall cost. Even a low-speed collision of a new car could cost up to $1,000.
If you find yourself in a fender bender and need to have your bumper replaced, you may be wondering about bumper repair costs. Usually, a bumper will cost between $880 and $1,390 to replace, depending on the type of vehicle you own and the amount of labor time the repair takes. Front bumper repair costs tend to be different than rear bumper repair costs. Additionally, different auto manufacturers will charge different amounts for bumper parts.
Why is Bumper Replacement and Bumper Repair Costs So Pricey?
Many folks get caught off-guard when they find out how much bumper repairs cost. This is because bumpers are an integral part of your vehicle for both aesthetic and practical purposes. They are vital components of a vehicle and this is why the price to repair or replace them are so high.
Labor Costs for Bumper installation Costs
Repairing or replacing a bumper isn’t just a simple matter of unscrewing a couple of bolts. Since modern front and end bumpers are integrated parts of the vehicle, auto technicians will need to disconnect and reconnect all of the parts. Some of these parts include:
● Air Intakes: Although this is not a common occurrence, some cars are made this way and have their cold-air intakes mounted to the front bumper.
● Airbag Sensors: These parts can sometimes be connected to the bumper. In order to remove the bumper, you will need to remove the airbag sensors first.
● Lights: A lot of your vehicle’s lights, including the headlights and turn signals, may be wired to the front bumper. They all need to be disconnected before you replace or repair the bumper.
● Trim: There can be numerous trim parts that are connected to the bumper. To replace or repair the bumper, they will need to be removed.
● Warning Signals: Car warning sensors such as weather sensors, parking sensors, backup sensors, vehicle lane changing warning sensors, collision warning sensors, as well as car cameras will probably be interconnected to your bumper.
Removing all of these parts one by one will take two hours or more to complete. If the car accident is severe, some of these parts will have to be replaced. These additional charges can quickly add up and significantly increase the costs of the overall replacement or repair process.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is a Bumper?
A vehicle’s bumper is a protective part of the automobile that is mounted to both the front and rear ends of the car. Typically crafted from aluminum, plastic, rubber, or steel, the bumper acts as a shock absorber during low-speed collisions. It also aids in reducing more significant damages made to your vehicle.

How do I install my Bumper Guard products?
Please reference our section on Installation Instructions
How long does it take to install the Bumper Guard products?
Installation takes only a few minutes. Please make sure to follow the installation instructions when applying our bumper guards.
Will the Bumper Guards chip, fade, or discolor?
Since the color of our bumper guards run through the product you will not experience any cracks, chips or fading like you would get from a painted bumper guard.
Can the Bumper Guards be installed on a repainted bumper?
We do not recommend installing bumper guards on a repainted bumper. Oftentimes when a bumper is repainted at a body shop the quality of the paint job is second rate. It is possible that the 3M adhesive can damage a repainted bumper if removed improperly.
If I trim or cut the edges of my bumper guard will the color be different on the cut edges?
No, since the color runs through the bumper guard; the color of the actual bumper guard will be the color on the exposed cut edge,
Can you paint the bumper guards to match a color that you do not carry?
You probably could get them professional painted at a bumper shop but we DO NOT recommend it. The paint will more than likely crack, chip or peel off with time/from the elements/or if damaged.
How do I know what size to order?
If you are unsure what size to order please measure your vehicle's bumper. The sizes we have available are standard sizes. We can customize a particular size if you require. Please contact us with any requests.
I can't tell what color to order?
Oftentimes we carry many shades of a particular color. If you are unsure which color to choose, we recommend ordering a color sample. Color samples are the simplest way to ensure a close color match. All color samples are shipped USPS and are labeled accordingly.
Is it possible to trim/cut color bumper guards, rear bumper guards, and/or front bumper guards?
Yes, however we recommend purchasing our professional grade clippers. They work really well in cutting/trimming your bumper guard. Please note our bumper guard edge comes straight cut. If you want to trim the ends of your bumper guards on an angle we recommend ordering the clippers. Also please note that standard scissors/players do not work so well when attempting to cut or trim the guards.

Carefully use the flat head screwdriver to pry these out of position. This should leave a clip exposed. This clip attaches the bumper to the body work, and needs to be cut with your clippers. Finally pull the bumper cover away from the car and place it on a blanket or towel to prevent it from getting scratched or damaged.
● Bumper Removal
After driving the car up the wheel ramps so that the front of the car is elevated, use a body board to go under the front of the car and find the bolts along the upper edge of the bumper. Use your spanner set to remove the bolts, and use the socket and ratchet set to remove the tensioning rods that sit on either side of the bumper. Make sure you store all the bolts in a safe place for reattachment, and then take the old bumper away from the car.
● Replace the Bumper
Place the bumper on the frame of the car and thread the bolts through the holes in the part to hold it in place against the frame. Then simply reattach the nuts to the bolts and tighten so the bumper is flush against the bodywork before finally reattaching the tensioning rods. You’re now ready to drive the car down the ramp and get to work on replacing the bumper cover.
● Reattach the Bumper Cover
Retrieve the bumper cover from its safe storage space. You will need to replace the clips that you destroyed in step 2 with new clips or the bumper cover will flap in the wind. Simply put the cover in place and lock it in position before reattaching all the necessary clips. When this is completed and the part is firmly held against the bumper simply reattach the screws under the grille and your car is good to go.

Bumper Installation Service near Albuquerque NM: In the worst scenario, because of high damage, a replacement will be made. A replacement of a bumper will cost you around $300 – $700. If sensors, lights, cameras or any other component are damaged, then you can expect an increase in overall cost. Even a low-speed collision of a new car could cost up to $1,000.
If you find yourself in a fender bender and need to have your bumper replaced, you may be wondering about bumper repair costs. Usually, a bumper will cost between $880 and $1,390 to replace, depending on the type of vehicle you own and the amount of labor time the repair takes. Front bumper repair costs tend to be different than rear bumper repair costs. Additionally, different auto manufacturers will charge different amounts for bumper parts.
Why is Bumper Replacement and Bumper Repair Costs So Pricey?
Many folks get caught off-guard when they find out how much bumper repairs cost. This is because bumpers are an integral part of your vehicle for both aesthetic and practical purposes. They are vital components of a vehicle and this is why the price to repair or replace them are so high.
Labor Costs for Bumper installation Costs
Repairing or replacing a bumper isn’t just a simple matter of unscrewing a couple of bolts. Since modern front and end bumpers are integrated parts of the vehicle, auto technicians will need to disconnect and reconnect all of the parts. Some of these parts include:
● Air Intakes: Although this is not a common occurrence, some cars are made this way and have their cold-air intakes mounted to the front bumper.
● Airbag Sensors: These parts can sometimes be connected to the bumper. In order to remove the bumper, you will need to remove the airbag sensors first.
● Lights: A lot of your vehicle’s lights, including the headlights and turn signals, may be wired to the front bumper. They all need to be disconnected before you replace or repair the bumper.
● Trim: There can be numerous trim parts that are connected to the bumper. To replace or repair the bumper, they will need to be removed.
● Warning Signals: Car warning sensors such as weather sensors, parking sensors, backup sensors, vehicle lane changing warning sensors, collision warning sensors, as well as car cameras will probably be interconnected to your bumper.
Removing all of these parts one by one will take two hours or more to complete. If the car accident is severe, some of these parts will have to be replaced. These additional charges can quickly add up and significantly increase the costs of the overall replacement or repair process.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is a Bumper?
A vehicle’s bumper is a protective part of the automobile that is mounted to both the front and rear ends of the car. Typically crafted from aluminum, plastic, rubber, or steel, the bumper acts as a shock absorber during low-speed collisions. It also aids in reducing more significant damages made to your vehicle. While some types of bumpers are made from foam that acts as a kind of cushion, others have energy absorbers or brackets that serve the same purpose.
How do I install my Bumper Guard products?
Please reference our section on Installation Instructions
How long does it take to install the Bumper Guard products?
Installation takes only a few minutes. Please make sure to follow the installation instructions when applying our bumper guards.
Will the Bumper Guards chip, fade, or discolor?
Since the color of our bumper guards run through the product you will not experience any cracks, chips or fading like you would get from a painted bumper guard.
Can the Bumper Guards be installed on a repainted bumper?
We do not recommend installing bumper guards on a repainted bumper. Oftentimes when a bumper is repainted at a body shop the quality of the paint job is second rate. It is possible that the 3M adhesive can damage a repainted bumper if removed improperly.
If I trim or cut the edges of my bumper guard will the color be different on the cut edges?
No, since the color runs through the bumper guard; the color of the actual bumper guard will be the color on the exposed cut edge,
Can you paint the bumper guards to match a color that you do not carry?
You probably could get them professional painted at a bumper shop but we DO NOT recommend it. The paint will more than likely crack, chip or peel off with time/from the elements/or if damaged.
How do I know what size to order?
If you are unsure what size to order please measure your vehicle's bumper. The sizes we have available are standard sizes. We can customize a particular size if you require. Please contact us with any requests.
I can't tell what color to order?
Oftentimes we carry many shades of a particular color. If you are unsure which color to choose, we recommend ordering a color sample. Color samples are the simplest way to ensure a close color match. All color samples are shipped USPS and are labeled accordingly.
Is it possible to trim/cut color bumper guards, rear bumper guards, and/or front bumper guards?
Yes, however we recommend purchasing our professional grade clippers. They work really well in cutting/trimming your bumper guard. Please note our bumper guard edge comes straight cut. If you want to trim the ends of your bumper guards on an angle we recommend ordering the clippers. Also please note that standard scissors/players do not work so well when attempting to cut or trim the guards.

I meant to get this done when I first got the van. A little degreaser, brush and the power washer to prep the rear fender blackout. This can protect a little bit more from rock chips but it’s a purely aesthetic thing. We use 3M rubberized undercarriage paint. Taped off all the parts we wanted to keep clean. And there you go.
