Fiberglass Bumpers Options

[frankiec@outrageous.net]

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

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.

Thanks buddy. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

I would like to see a fiberglass bumper for the '75/'76 that wraps the ends a little more. That would save having to remove the rubber bumper clips , the hole filling, and repainting.

Mine is a 75. I just trimmed off all the excess metal. Wasn't really that big of a deal. I didn't have the dog bones and just used washers to space out the bumper from the body.

Looking Good Woodrow!!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)
