Bump Her Pole

er...bumper poll

Anyone have pictures to backup your choice?

 

chrome just looks sweeet!

 

I have always leaned toward chrome. but recently, I have seen some that look good painted.

Mine are good cores, but need to be rechromed. So, to keep them from rusting between now and when I can afford the chrome, I need to paint them. I am leaning toward glossy black paint for the current time. Not sure what color the car will be when I am done....

 

id say go flat black.. but thats just me..

 

Here is fan2488s car. Seen it in person several times, and got me thinking that black for the short term, or maybe longer, might be neat.

And, since my recently added bobcat lights are black...

Saw one recently with the bumpers the same color as the car...pretty cool too!

 

Chrome yo.

 

Here is one with the bumpers painted to match the center stripe...

 

AND one with bumpers painted to match the car...

 

i want to go chrome sometime in the future. semigloss black is fine for now

 

I like both chromed and body color painted bumpers. When I get the parts for the bumper swap I think I'm going body color with the rear bumper and chromed at the front since the hood and fender lip molding would look wrong with a painted bumper (unless you painted the moldings too, like a stallion).

The works: Chrome, rubber trim strips, bumper guards.

I'm still looking for the center rubber strip, but otherwise the bumper looks great. I replaced the locking gas cap with a steerhead, so the rear looks even better now.

Ed, why did you paint yours? What shape is the chrome underneath?

 

Has someone seen this mav???

The tucked in '73 front bumper looks awesome! I've seen another '73 tucked bumper mav in MaverickMan's site, and it looks cool.

 

HOLY SH!T !!

 

yeah, I reacted like that when I saw it the first time!
