Often, the first line of defense for protecting your car in a collision is the front bumper. Although this safety feature might not be as effective in the case of a major crash, its primary role is to prevent damage to the car body and other components such as lights due to smaller collisions. Where car bumpers were once made of steel that offered little in the way of crash prevention (though these can still be found on some trucks), the bumpers of today are made up of impact-absorbing foam protected by a bumper cover that is designed and painted to match the exterior of the car.

Front bumpers are quite durable and able to sustain minor impacts. Cosmetics-wise, however, unsightly cracks and scratches can appear on the surface even through daily driving. Even if the front bumper is still functional, you might want to look for a replacement to restore your car to its original appearance. Internally, front bumpers can contain a number of components, such as impact strips and reinforcement bars, any of which can be damaged and need replacing.
