Topic: Best reproduction 66 rear bumper?

[hertz350]

Which company makes the best reproduction bumper? I can't seem to find a good rear core that is straight and good enough to re-chrome. I am thinking of buying the best fitting bumper made and then re-chroming it. I have not been impressed by the NOS Ford rear bumpers I have seen. Chrome quality is lacking.

Thoughts?

If you are going to that kind of trouble use a NOS bumper to rechrome. FYI It is typical that NOS bumpers need rechromed for best look. They were mass produced with little concern for the type of scrutiny a show car bumper is put through.I wouldn't waste the money on rechroming a repro.
