It has been about 5 months and I finally got my 73 bumpers back from chrome. I had them fill all the holes, bumper jack, bumper guard, plastic filler and even the holes for the mounting bolts to make them perfectly smooth. They look fantastic. Just finished bolting on the front. I am also tucking the bumpers in similar to the 71-72 cars. Had a little trouble fitting the grill and lights. Ended up trimming a 1/2 inch off the plastic headlight bezels and then shortening the brackets themselves by another 1/2 inch before it all came together but looks good.

We don't currently have any free (to the user) photo hosting through the site. Your photos have to be hosted somewhere. For my own photos, I use Flickr. There's a tutorial here. FLICKR TUTORIAL

Would love to see the pics and how clean they look. How are you mounting the bumpers if you had all of the bolt holes filled in?

The bumper shop welded studs to the inside of the bumpers for mounting. I will see if I can figure out that picture thing so I can share.
