I'd like some feedback on who (IYO) makes the best fiberglass bumpers. I'm backdating a 75 and I'm concerned about quality of the fiberglass, how the corners are fitted to the fenders and the type of mounting brackets, ease in installation etc.
Thanks |

QUOTE(pete000 @ Jan 28 2015, 09:05 PM)  Just don't bump into anything ! You will not be happy ! It's not as if the metal bumpers are robust - my front bumper is dented from PO's minor parking lot bump - I've pounded most of it out but it really needs professional work and re-chroming which is far more expensive than fiberglass. Also, like Woody I have a silver car and feel between the paint, fuchs, window trim, and bumpers there are too many shades of silver, plus coupled with the above mentioned bumper damage, I've considered fiberglass. I like the clean, more contemporary look of Woody's bumpers. |
