Re: BEST aftermarket bumpers?

When I bought my truck the P/O gave me a chrome rear bumper new in the box from lmc, I installed it but the chrome quality didn't seem all that great. A few months later the truck was rear ended and my friend at the body shop sent mine out to be straightened and rechromed locally. the repair wasn't too bad and I spent about $300.00 on a $160.00 rear bumper. but it was straighter then new and the chrome quality was so much better. when the time comes I will send out my front and do the same instead of buying a new one. Not sure about the other suppliers bumpers quality out there.

Re: BEST aftermarket bumpers?

I was getting ready to ask the same question because I want to ditch the 71-72 bumper thats on my truck and go back to the correct style.

Re: BEST aftermarket bumpers?

I got mine from Top Banana and the chrome is really nice. No pitting or chipped chrome. I still have the original bumpers but wanted "new chrome"
