Sport bumper on long beds?

I have a roll pan right now on my 83 longbed but have been thinking about getting one of the chrome sport bumpers that I have seen on a lot of shortbeds. I have never seen one of these on a longbed and was wondering if anyone has any pictures.

Well I have one on my 87 LWB but I don't think I have a picture from the rear. Looks the same as the SWB, just a little farther back. I like them

Doesn't look too bad... anyone else have any pictures of this? I'm getting ready to paint my truck in about 2 weeks and deciding whether I'm going to keep the roll pan or go with a sport bumper.

Re: Sport bumper on long beds?

I really like the sport bumper. not as stout as a 10" drop, but better looking and will take some impact (unlike a roll pan)

That's a good looking truck!! Those rear window louvers made me flash back to about 81-82!! Had them on my 78 C10...

That looks really good on there. I'm leaning toward buying a sport bumper.
