Do we have any retailers that sell new chromed bumpers?

Thanks

I might be able to get a bumper, but I think it's a little bent and you'd need to straighten it yourself, and get it chromed too. Cost prohibitive, I'd say. AZ is too far from me, too. Maybe some body in CA would take care of ya.

I have one with some minor dents and needing rechoming. I thought it would be cheaper to just purchase an entire new one.

Never did any bumper work.

Neither have I done any bumper work or chroming. I couldn't tell you want the charge might be, but I know I could find out. I just don't have any need to chrome parts, but I agree a nicely chromed rear bumper does look nice on a truck.

I have not seen a new bumper for sale and if there is one it would be a cheap reproduction. Word is right now that Arizona is the best place to get your bumper straightened and rechromed. They still use the high nickel there, I hope to be sending both of mine out next month. I have been told it is pricey.

I have 2 completely perfect bumpers that i may sell if the price is right. the problem is there in colorado right now. I am taking a trip and the end of june if anyone is interested. I won't let them go for less than 200 each though. Its very rare for these to be straight. It took me 6 years to find these! I ended up paying 300 for one off ebay at one time..
