Diamond Plate Rear Bumpers - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I've decided I like the diamond plate rear bumpers but I know I saw one that had the wrap around the sides type that wasn't a step type bumper. It protruded about 3"-4" past the sheetmetal almost like a rollpan the protrudes.

Do you guys know if that was a one off bumper or was it an available option?

I just recently starting trying to figure out what rear bumper I have. From what I can tell, there was an aftermarket option made by Barden. That's the closest I've found to mine, but even then, I have a different license plate and light setup than I've seen. Mine is on the far left and the plate tucks a little under the tailgate.

At very least, googling with the keyword Barden will produce some results. If you find anything different, please update the thread!

Yea, there are several threads on here about them. They were a dealer add-on. Many of them had the dealer name and city stamped into them.
