Good advise if you want a quality long lasting bumper that fits from day one with no modification or hassle. I had both the front and rear bumpers re-chromed for my '57 Chevy 2 dr. sedan. Was not cheap but then again cheap is rarely good and good is rarely cheap. Nothing fits like an original part.
Swap meets, garage / yard sales, craigslist, maybe even a salvage yard. They still exist and some times a person gets lucky. Start asking around and keep an eye out for trucks maybe being parted locally. Let your local car/truck guys know you are looking for an original bumper. I found a pair of 15x8 CUCV 6 lug wheels using that method and they are hard to find. Good luck in your search.
