Need Front Bumper Cover Brackets

My wife backed straight up our steep driveway and ripped my front bumper off.... In her defense it appears as though the brackets were already broken as someone had zip tied the bumper on partially.

Anyway, my bumper cover as a whole is still serviceable but I need the left and right brackets that are riveted to the cover. I've attached a picture of one I found on the net with the bracket still attached.

If anybody has a set I would pay good money for them. I don't really like driving around with no bumper.

Thanks!

for those who may be inquiring in the future.... since creating this thread I've since realized that the part I circled in the above picture is not a separate piece, it is part of the whole mounting assembly that runs the full length of the bumper cover.

I found one at a local junk yard

Hi Wammer,

I know your post is from 2016, but I am dealing with that exact same issue right now.
Good to know that it's part of the main front bumper peice. No wonder I can't find
any one selling it. I am NOT going to buy a new/used bumper then paint to match etc....

I'm going to remove the rivets and fiber glass the thing back together (both sides).

This should make it stronger than factory. Mine are just crumbling to peices.

Thanks for your research on this matter.
