Bumper Cover

The bumper cover developed during the 1980’s. The loosening of auto safety regulations by the Reagan administration permitted the industry to build cars with an emphasis on style, rather than safety. Auto makers went from the heavy, bulky bumpers of the past to smaller versions that allowed plastic covers to be used to finish the front and rear of the car.

Today, the bumper cover is used on nearly every single vehicle produced by the auto industry. From an aesthetics standpoint, the covers are much more visually pleasing than the steel bumpers of the past. They have allowed car makers to create more artistic looking vehicles than could be done with the old bumpers.

Should you find yourself involved in a minor accident, you might need to replace your bumper cover. Fortunately, replacements are usually easy to find and are relatively inexpensive. Most covers can be installed by the car owner.
