Bumper Question

I have a 04 NBS f150 and i know this guy thats selling a rear bumper off a 06. I know there was a rear bumper change sometime in the production of the f150s. I was wondering if the 06 bumper would fit on my 04.

Thanks,
Trent Kammerer

You're NBS (new body style) so yes. As long as you don't have a Heritage.

The front bumper changed in 06. Not the rear.

yep, they went with the round fogs instead of the rectangle ones before.

The rear bumper design changed also. I think it was in 06 as well. An 06 rear bumper won't fit on an 04 truck.

Yea. My father has a 07 and the factory hitch is different than mine. The reason i need a new bumper is because someone rear ended me and they bent the bumper brackets also. I was just going to get some scrap steel and make and weld my own custom brackets useing the old bent ones as models because ford brackets are EXPENSIVE. So if i made my own brackets it would fit right?

Thanks,
