Default Anyone Have Experience With This Company?

Ranch Hand Style Bumpers 512-563-8188 Low Prices! BumperDude.com
He sells these things pretty reasonable,and I need a couple of bumpers for my truck,and my moms,since her old bumper looks like a messed up pretzel.
Price is almost too reasonable...

I have seen that before, prices are reasonable. 512 area code is around Austin,Tx.

Anybody here near Austin have any insight on Bubba the Bumper Dude

It does say those are starting prices. Which could be the scratch and dent items starting at those price ranges. There is a Ranch Hand store here in Boerne, Texas and they do sell their scratch and dent/used items at discount prices. You might give Bubba a call and see if this is the case.

I don't really mind if there are a few scratches,they are going to get scratched plenty,I think these are knock-offs,which is fine,I just need something to keep the deer out of my grill,and my mom seems to have trouble remembering the parking brake...

Was that on a hill, it looks like the truck was moving pretty fast to do that much damage.

Iron Bull Bumpers are just as strong as Ranchhand and way better looking

I went down to deliver a shower trailer for FEMA,and met the fella that sells the bumpers,bought 2 of them,good price,honest dude.
Those bumpers are nice DunesRunner,but I can't justify that kinda money just to look awesome

I have dealt with this guy quite a bit. Very nice, and worked with me on payments when I was in the Marines. The first time I called him we talked about diesels for two hours, I forgot to ask him about bumpers. I will buy all my stuff from him I can.
