We also did a pair of stock bumpers in this batch. These had the extra holes welded shut before shipment. They were $700 each. So I think you're right on Cairo.

Looks like great work! I've been looking for a place to repair/re-chrome my bumpers. I've got a slight dent on my front bumper and want to fill tit holes. Does Ogden provide repair work or only chroming? If not, any recommendations for SoCal area?

I'm pretty sure they can handle the whole process. Give 'em a call.

Mark,
Would you consider building another GT front bumper? If so, would you PM me a price for both, finished satin and in chrome?
There is a 3.6 conversion underway that this would be perfect for.
Thanks!
Danny

Hey Mark,
Any chance that you would tackle building another one of these?
Thanks!

Can't say that, it is a registered trademark of Mac Donald's.
The chrome is great, but I think more credit should go to the original fabrication job. So if I paint mine.. I can do it myself. But don't have a front cooler...yet.
Nice story, looking for an applause emoticon. Well done!

For all that money, you think your fabricator could have made it to match the cutout of the lower valance ...

If only the fabricator had the valence when it was being built. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

AND, the valence may need to be adjusted slightly.

I think that valance can be adjusted to match the bumper opening. Must have installed it after a couple cold ones..... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif)
