both front and rear bumpers are twisted from minor bumps. i'd love to replace them with the flat black primer bumpers you find on ebay and in the LMC catalogs. love the way they look as they are, have no desire to paint them so my question would be, how does this finish hold up to normal use? also considered getting the repop SS grille and leaving it the same way to have the whole front end in flat black like the old 454SS trucks.

 

dadgum! i know i've seen a few of y'all with those bumpers. how are they holding up?

 

are they powdercoated black? if so then i'd think they would hold up pretty good..

where you at around fort worth btw?

 

i know powdercoat would be durable but it looks to be like the black primer you see on steel fenders, hoods, etc. smooth semigloss. i'm up near texas motor speedway, 114 and 35w.

checked the link to your truck... good lookin' machine!

 

i had one of those when I chashed my 05 and after a while they start getting small rust spots and road tar and bugs stick to it very easy. it seems as if it was just some cheap rattle can primer
