Sport Bumpers
Hey guys, im just wondering where i can look to buy a sport bumper. Im getting sick of not having a rear bumper and just running 2 aux. tail lights on the bracket. I used to think i was gonna do a roll pan, but it seems like thats not where the style is going now. If i could get names of places online to look and price sport bumpers thatd be awesome.

They still show to have NOS (new OE) bumpers for $110. To me, you can't beat that with a stick. Just gotta buy the 4 bumper brackets and tag pocket and if you want the left and right stone shields. Viola, factory sport bumper, stylin'. |

Re: Sport Bumpers
Just ordered a bumper from CPA. Like RandyP metioned. Ordered it this last monday, I'll put up some pics when it gets here, and i put it on. lol. Like the one he metioned, its an nos GM. I got brackets from them, along with the odds and ends.
Now... LMC truck also sells sport bumpers. Painted/chrome/premium chrome. Premium chrome have a 5 year warrenty. Painted $?/Chrome $120ish/Premium chrome $180. They also have brackets. When i called lmc, the brackets were 5 weeks back order as of last fri. Thats why i ordered/changed it up with CPA. Plus... You can't beat an NOS GM. Hope this helps a bit, and nice truck man.

Re: Sport Bumpers
I got one from them since it was a good deal on a NOS bumper. Not really ready to toss it on yet, but my original is bent pretty badly and I have room to store it. I did not want to miss out and they not be available when I was ready. You just can't go wrong with factory chrome!

Brackets #18, #19, #20, #21 (#17 is the bracket kit) And you should put the gravel guards on, 25 & 26, plus the tag pocket #11 Last edited by RandyP; 06-10-2010 at 10:25 PM. |
