BKB1  I assume the one you saw at the car show didn't have the humps as I don't believe that mine does either.  If the bumper is really pitted and you are planning on painting them like that . . . . I would assume that the pits will show through unles you fill them with something to smooth it out before primer.  I guess my advise would be to break down and buy a replacement!   grinyes  grinyes  grinyes

Nothing makes a nice looking car better looking than a shiny new set of chrome bumpers.  They will set you back, but you'll be happy with they way they look.

 :iagree:

Not cheap but neither is this hobby, plus you could try and make up a little by selling the old ones on E-bay.
