Chrome Front and rear bumpers without bolts 73-87
 
I'm looking to purchase a chrome front and rear bumper for my 1976 c10 without the bolts, just smooth. I know I can weld the bolt on the back and have them re chromed but was wondering if a aftermarket company sells them. Thanks for any additional info!!!

First post to this forum and I am glad I can help!

My new favorite website is lmctruck.com . I found my bumpers there and it looks like they have the ones without bolt holes as well. They have their featured products and then there is the massive catalog. Check both and i think you will find them.

This I'd usually a custom mod. If you can find a custom shop they can do it for you but it's gonna cost you a grand or two

You can't beat GM parts quality...use a nice set of original bumpers and have the chrome shop take care of the rest. I had both my bumpers done, show chrome, for $800.

Big block 73, those look sweet do you have a number or contact person for the chrome company you used. Also did you weld the bolt on or did they?

Keystone in Brainerd MN. That price included everything...bodywork, welding the studs, and filling an additional 1/2" hole...these are factory 1973 bumpers...but you would never know. I dropped off and picked them up...thats it.

In most cases aftermarket bumpers are thinner so find factory ones if you can.
