Smooth bumper?
I know the 67-72 guys can get smooth bumpers(no bolts showing). Does anyone make them for ours?

Re: Smooth bumper?
I know what it takes to make a smooth bumper, but I haven't got the skills to do it!

Re: Smooth bumper?
They showed how to smooth a bumper on an episode of either Gearz or Trucks one time.

Re: Smooth bumper?
If you put the bolt through the bumper, cut half of the head off. Weld that half into the front of the bumper. Then cut the other half off, weld. Grind welds flat, fill as needed. Done.

Re: Smooth bumper?
So, no. lmao Darn, it would look good with my eventual paint scheme.

Re: Smooth bumper?
No, but it's nothing a welder and a grinder can't do. It would be a fairly simple and quick job if you have tools and skill or know someone that does.
