I think I already stated it's an original OEM bumper, I just rechromed it. Not a repop. If someone knows where the part number is stamped, I can double check it (unless it's under a mount, I'm not going crazy).

The fit of the original truck looks no better than mine though.

The original picture shows them in the correct location; the way Shawn installed them in the second pic is "incorrect" but saves drilling the hole.
