Rear Bumper Protectors

[bburzycki]

I have 5 BMC covers on our fleet of vehicles, they are the best solution out there I have found.

 

[HughCares]

Has anyone in Canada ordered this bumper cover from BMC?
I always get screwed in the end with additional charges when ordering from the US and want to know how much it cost all in. Or preferably somewhere I can order this product in Canada.

I have created a thread asking for Canadian vendors to come forward to accommodate Canadian buyers. See link below.

No one is "screwing you". You simply need to educate yourself prior to purchasing goods from other countries with respect to the exchange rates, duties, taxes and customs. Take a moment to do your homework up front and you'll know exactly what your net cost will be.

Sure, I can research that but it's not the point. International shipments end up costing much more than the part is worth. This is why I seek local vendors first.

I have this one and yeah, having the lip come over the edge would be nice... i didn't see it as big of a need.

Back bumper guard

hi all,
Does anyone have the back bumper protection? I've been looking for one but cant seem to find it..

If you do where did you get it? I dont have a push bar/grille because it affects the Adaptable Cruise Control. But i do want one for the back.

Thanks

This is what I just got: http://www.bmcextremecustoms.net/20foexrebupr.html

Works and looks nice in my opinion. Better than the factory version.

 

[cwescapexlt4x4]

Looks good, but would be harder to keep clean

True, but I'd rather have the leading edge protected, as mine already has some damage from loading/unloading (previous owners) so its a decent trade-off.

I have the same one and it has about a 3/8" lip that wraps around the bumper edge, were the OEM one doesn't have that one to protect that edge as mentioned by sobsmb. Not hard to keep clean.

 

[cwescapexlt4x4]

True, the OEM doesn't cover the edge as the one above does. If my dogs were allowed in the EX (they do go in the VW) then I would've wanted the edge wrapped.

It all comes down to what you like. I had edge damage, so my choice was set. I was just glad I could find it for under $100. I love how the factory one says "Explorer"

Either option the OP should be able to find what they need.

Here is a link for the factory one:

Oops!!! Sorry about that. I want something like that, but don't know if I can bite the bullet, the Ex barely fits in my garage as is.

 

[sobsmb]

This is the one I wanted to get, but like the comments say it could interfere with the rear sensors:

I had my window tint guy take some of his scrap 3M Clear Bra material and he made me a custom rear bumper cover. It looks great as he cut it out to replicate the shape right up into the tailgate. So far its worked great, car wash hasn't done any damage either.

I see on your license plate frame says Surprise, as in AZ. I spend the month of March there to go to spring training games there. Stay in Scottsdale-just wondering.

 

[cwescapexlt4x4]

Not to get off topic, but yes LOVE spring training and I am on the west side of the valley vs. east (Scottsdale)

Using the Forum's 'Search' program I found this thread and merged yours with it.

And to continue the off-topic conversation, I'll keep an eye out for you. I live down the road from you by Arrowhead and just got my 2016 Explorer Sport in white.
