Front and rear bumper replacements
j.c.whitney lists a front bumper replacement in their catalogue for all aerostars. i don't think it(front bumper) ever changed much. they do not list a rear bumper. the rear bumper comes in three interlocking pieces. i bought pieces for mine at a ford dealer. side pieces were 150.00 ea,.. back piece was 450.00 or 500.00. i just replaced the sides . had to paint them myself. they come all black.(mine is extended. shorties might be cheaper.)
you may want to do a used parts search. i found some cheaper and still usefull stuff that way .i don't remember the link right now,..it was probably carparts.com or something. i recently backed into a pole and cracked the middle back bumper. i was looking for a plasctic repair compound, to fill and seal the crack, then paint it again. i was wondering if bondo would work? good luck!! rick
