    Rughly around $225-$250 a bumper.Stay away from a company called Bumper Boyz!! Total JUNK! Check out a company called Tri City Plating.I had them do my 66 mustang orig. front bumper a while ago,and the work was top notch.

    someone ask me if tri-city gave me my quote of $225 on my bumpers, sorry i did not respond hit wrong button. to answer your inquiry that was from a local place here in tucson,az. says his turn out better than new. im going to drop off a boom-a-rang first, see how he does. as soon as i learn how to down load pix i will.

    That was me in a PM - I will go delete your post in the Tri-City vendor link with that price, as it could be misleading to others.

    That price is great if the quality is good. :)

    Yep Papago does great work, but FYI there prices have gone up........ There at about 175.00 a piece, for stripping and rechroming.
