Smooth front bumper
Any of you guys buy this bumper? If so how is the fitment and finish? Also do they make a rear smooth bumper? I couldn't find one.

Re: Smooth front bumper
I tried one...inner bolt locating tabs did not line up with my brackets. Didn't want to buy new brackets or possibly screw it up by trying to make it fit, so I took it back. Bought mine from Ecklers.

Re: Smooth front bumper
I was a little afraid of that. Did you try loosening the brackets on both sides?

Re: Smooth front bumper
We have sold quite a few of them, with no disappointments. It is important that your loosen the bumper brackets and fit them up with the bumper before tightening up everything. https://cooperrestorations.com/produ...dden-hardware/
They look great and are excellent quality. Jeff Cooper Cooper Restorations |

Re: Smooth front bumper
Can the smooth rear bumper be used with a hidden hitch (behind the license plate)?

Re: Smooth front bumper
I don't like the smoth rear one. Like the front, they didn't just make it smooth, they changed it. On the front they eliminated the tag mount area, which is great in a rear tag-only state, and the rear tag area is not cut out. It's just indented with no tag light provision. Eliminating the bolt heads is a nice custom touch, but changing the design turns me away

Re: Smooth front bumper
I put one on mine, went on easy, fits great. I like the "no plate".
