Default Rear Bumper

Hey everyone, sad to say my new 2010 xB has already gotten a battle scar, not even 5k miles and my bumper and tail light got smashed. For a replacement tail light i was thinking about going with this one:

http://www.coolcarpartsonline.com/led-tail-lights/spyder-led-tail-lights/scion-xb-2008-2010-spyder-black-led-tail-light


As for bumpers I'm not sure. If anyone has any suggestions i would love to hear it. Also I was looking into dual back up lights, because the single stock reverse light is honestly crap. I could probably see better if i had a blind man telling me how much room i have in the back before i hit something. Well anyone thanks for the help

i have those exact same tail lights on my ride and i love em. they look excellent and theyre pretty damn bright too. those are about 50 bucks less than what i paid too so good find, ha. as far as bumpers go tho, theres really not too many choices. i kno theres a few nice lip kits but im not too sure about full bumpers. and dual back up lights would be really cool too. pop in some leds, or maybe some HIDs if u wanna light the whole world up

With those tail I would take the lower reflector out and put reverse lights in place of them. That way you can have the stock reverse light removed from the bumper. Looks a lot cleaner without it.

Here's the update of everything installed and fixed, only problem that I noticed is the lights aren't plush to car, im guessing some weather strips or something could fix that problem but not really worried about it.
