You will be very happy to grin and bear it to wait and have your originals done. Tri-City is awesome

Try Roseville, the sell regular AMD bumpers but also have ones that were Chrome plated here in the USA...I believe through Keystone. They fit nice,

Tri-City sometimes has finished stock. You may be able to send in your cores and get a set in short lead time. I would call an inquire. Good luck!

Go with Tri City, you won't regret it. The AMD bumpers I have seen in the past have stamping marks/ lines along the bottom edge of the bumpers.

The only issue I had with the bumpers supplied to me by Roseville (Keystone) was I had to move the driver side bumper guard hole about 1/2" towards the outside of the car so it would sit correctly in the center of the opening in the rear valance. I had to do this, not only on 76orangewagon's 71, but also on the rear bumper of the current pink AAR here at my shop.

AMD and Keystone bumpers are the same mfg, only difference is Keystone re-plates them... FYI I heard Keystone is going to discontinue the chrome plated line of bumpers, best hurry if you want Keystone chrome quality, the AMD chrome is pretty much what OEM was (double plate/nickel-chromium) AMD bumpers can be a hit or miss sometimes as to the quality of fit/finish, I'd recommend visiting a vendor that has them in stock so that you can choose the one that fits your criteria.... FWIW I've had good luck with the AMD bumpers I've purchased directly thru AMD, I avoid Ebay or other Internet/forum vendors selling AMD products, as they may be selling rejects/2nds or returns from their stock.... vendors that drop ship from AMD are also prefered sources, so ask before you drop any coin...
