I am having my car painted and will need my bumpers redone at some point. Given the price of replating I was wondering if chromed bumpers can be painted? Can chromed bumpers be painted? Do you need to do any special preparation?

Thanks

Chrome bumpers can be scuffed, primed and painted... but why?

Save them. Someone here has a set of painted bumpers available, I'm sure.

If you want painted bumpers, go buy a set of black ones and then paint them. I would have the bumpers rechromed and then sell them, They go for mega bucks if they are straight and clean. Just my opinion. Especially early ones.
