Re: Looking for ideas - Stepside rear bumper
I got some pics today and if I can get them posted you can see what I got for a step bumper. Had to make my brackets but not a big problem. When I cut the bumper in half I figured Id sink the lic plate at the same time. Cut the OEM pad to fit and added a center piece of alum diamond plate. Enjoy the winter up there. I hear its going to be a cold one.

Re: Looking for ideas - Stepside rear bumper
That looks pretty good in the color match - I've also seen the 01-05 stepside bumpers that look decent. I'm a sucker for chrome, is all

Re: Looking for ideas - Stepside rear bumper
The problem I have with chrome anymore is that it costs way to much and most of the shops around here dont know how to prep the part before its plated and that spells disaster in about 2 yrs & sometimes less. Paint is easy to maintain. If you get damage you fix & repaint. (CHEAP) Good luck.
