Learn About Bumpers and Parts for 2011 Ford F-150

The bumper on your 2011 Ford is one of the most visible components and one of the most vulnerable. When you want to change the appearance of your truck or fix damage, Ford F-150 bumper parts are a must. Whether you’re choosing Ford parts for sale on eBay or aftermarket components on eBay, it’s important to find the right fit.

If you’re looking to replace your truck’s original front or back bumpers, some of the parts you can buy are listed here:

• Face bar - This is the metal plate that forms the bumper itself. On the 2011 model, the face bar has openings and holes that accept the snap-in plastic trim pieces that give the truck its distinctive look.
• License plate holder - This insert snaps into the center of the bumper face bar and holds your license plate.
• Bumper pads - These rectangular plastic pieces snap onto the bumper face bar on either side of the license plate holder.
• Step pad moldings - These are the long molded plastic or fiberglass strips that fit over the rear bumper of your F-150. They feature a recessed area that fits into the step of the bumper and two long sides that cover the top of the bumper. These pads protect the metal bumper itself and create traction when you’re climbing in and out of the truck bed.
• Lights - Bumper lights for the 2011 F-150 fit into the round openings on the left and right sides of the front bumper bar.
