Took mine to B & L Plating in Warren Michigan..One of the very last shops that strip the bumper then copper plate buffed to a mirror finish then triple nickle chrome...It dont get any better than that..I did the front and rear for my 72 RR and they look like mirrors..Just beautiful..And zero worries about getting your original parts back..Class act here boys but you will pay for it..And its worth it..


1972 Road Runner / GTX 440 4spd Dana 3.54 Just about to turn 26K original miles..

A boat, a GMC truck, some Craftsman Tools, LOTS of Zombie Protection, and a few Goldfish..

If you love someone set them free..
If they come back it means nobody else wanted them either..!!

Tri city does excellent work but mostly there is wait because they chrome yours....not alot in stock....(best way is to send them and then pick them up at one of the shows they go to, excellent work)I know I've heard all these negitive things about Bumper Boyz BUT I have used them for years...had one issue with a bumper and they exchanged it without even looking at it. Being in Buffalo Ny I see them in Dunkirk...Niagara Falls....travel to Syracuse and Carlisle..Just got a compliment on My 69 Bee on how the bumpers looked so good. I am very happy with the price/product and service...and no...don't work or connected to them....lol

Yes, used bumper boyz and Tri City and never had issues with either companys products. Though, I believe neither one is using copper any more. I've used those because they usually make a showing at Carlisle and I try avoiding shipping costs when possible.

i bought a bumper from tri-city for my bird.. 1st one was very wavy on the bottom..sent it back, got a second, wavy on the top (both had lots of hammer marks on the back)... the 3rd one was 'acceptable'... should have marked my perfect bumper n sent it to them... the chrome tho is real nice..

but if u want perfection...pauls in pa...
