To replace the front bumper on a 2005 Dodge Ram 1500 will cost between $100 to $1,000, and possibly anywhere from $200 to $600 more for painting and installation.
However, keep in mind that there are several factors that can influence the price of your new bumper, like the cost of labor in your area as well as the extent of the damage. Also, replacement parts for SUVs and trucks are usually more expensive than for sedans and smaller vehicles.
