So.. a few years ago my sister was learning how to drive in my car (At the time it was still my mom's tahoe). and she ended up hitting a pole.... It was a small pole but it left a pretty big dent in the front bumper, but it didnt affect the moving parts of the car so it remained un-fixed until now. After doing a lot of work to the tahoe i realized it still looks like its been in an accident, so i finally got a replacement bumper and put it on. here it is!

Looks good. Ever thought of color matching the bumper cap?

Thanks! And yes i have many many times. I almost think there would be too much white up front with the color matched grill right there... when i got the new bumper it came with a bumper cap so maybe ill paint one and have the black one to go back to if i dont like it.

That dent would've driven me crazy. Looks great now. Like the headlights might have to try that on mine

Thanks! Ive been meaning to do it for a while its just now im super happy with it and glad, but everyone else just sees it as a stock bumper haha...

where did you get the replacement bumper from? LMC Truck? I have the same problem, only it's in the rear. Like you, it didn't affect any major parts so I still have the dented rear bumper.

After having an imperfection like that dent for a while a stock bumper seems like the best "mod" ever!
