Front Bumpers

Unlike older cars where there was a clear distinction between a chrome bumper and the rest of the front end, late model cars and SUVs are quite different. Modern plastic bumper covers can be integrated into the shape of the front end in many ways. On some vehicles the bumper might completely surround the grille, or the grille and the headlights. Together these components combine to form the “face” of your vehicle, and just as you always want to present your best face, you can make sure the one on your vehicle always looks its best with our replacement front bumpers and related components.

Although we have a huge selection of plastic front bumper covers and their associated parts for cars, trucks, and SUVs, we haven’t forgotten those of you who roll with “real steel”. Many late model trucks are still equipped with complete steel front bumpers or bumper face bars in black or chrome, and of course there are all the older model cars and trucks, especially classics and muscle cars, which sport chrome front bumpers. Regardless of the make, model, and year of your vehicle or the bumper material, we have everything you need to restore your vehicle’s appearance.

The convergence of modern vehicle styling with efforts by auto makers to increase crash safety and meet federal regulations has resulted in front bumper assemblies that are much more complicated than their forebears. The visible exterior obscures a complex support and impact absorbing mechanism. When bumper regulations were first enacted in the 1970s, vehicle manufacturers initially used plastic filler panels and bumper end caps to hide the energy absorbing structure. From these evolved the wraparound bumper covers and face bars that we have today. Although these parts have some flexibility, impacts can still cause cracks, abrasions and worse that impair vehicle appearance. In addition to the aforementioned components we also offer bumper air shields, bellows, extensions, and corners.

Unlike plastic bumpers that have the resiliency to spring back from a minor tap, often unscathed, a steel bumper or face bar will bear the scar from the slightest impact. Furthermore, as any collector car enthusiast knows, the elements will eventually exact a toll on steel with rust. Left unchecked, even a small rust spot caused by a stone chip can ultimately result in peeling chrome and rust through. While original front bumpers can be re-chromed, before any plating can be done a skilled technician first has to remove the dents and straighten out any deformities, and the whole process can be both costly and time consuming. Our replacement chrome steel front bumpers can restore your vehicle to its former glory and save you time and money.

Our chrome front bumpers are the smart solution for late model vehicle owners and classic car owners alike. Along with an extensive assortment of front bumpers for newer vehicles, we also offer authentic reproduction chrome steel bumpers for most popular classic and muscle cars. These bumpers are manufactured by vehicle restoration parts specialists, stamped from the proper gauge steel of the highest quality, and then undergo a 3-step, show quality plating process that meets or exceeds original factory standards. Our reproduction bumpers are designed to exactly replicate the original part and are correct in every detail, for a show winning appearance. We also offer bumper guards and everything else needed to give your baby that fresh off the assembly line look.
