Who is running painted bumpers
I was just scrolling through the pic thread and was looking for trucks with painted bumpers. I am thinking of running them front and rear.
Seems like everyone has chrome. If you have painted bumpers, I would love to see them. |

Re: Who is running painted bumpers
Here is my trucks as it sits now... It will all be medium green with white cap at some point I am thinking white sport bumpers to match the white cap. the chrome from bumper that is on it is not in great shape on the drivers side.

Re: Who is running painted bumpers
My '70 came from factory with a chrome front bumper but when I got it the bumper was long gone so I just put this painted one on.

Re: Who is running painted bumpers
Thanks for all the pics guys, I'm definitely sold on painted at this point. I think it will look good when I lower it a bit and get her painted... clean and simple.
If you have um keep positin um! |

Re: Who is running painted bumpers
"Odd Ball" wanted something a little different than white just for the hell of it. So had it blasted and powder coated. Turned out decent and only have about $60 in it. Chrome was going to be well over $125 before shipping. Have not installed it yet.
Before n after shot..

Re: Who is running painted bumpers
I think powder coating a rear step or standard type bumper is worth the effort also n make them a match pair.
