OK my friend screwed up his front bumper he backed up into something, he has a 01 f150 reg cab red sport. He wants to replace his bumper with a chrome bumper instead of colormatched, im wondering if anybody has done this and how does it look? and how do you replace a ford bumper? Thanks

 

c'mon guys on a chevy forum this would be answered within minutes... dont get me started on that though. we can all be friends

 

Uh, how does one screw up their front bumper backing up into something?

Would anybody catch that on the Chevy forum?

 

You put in the reverse, turn the wheel, and catch the edge of the bumper on something (a scraper in this case) it would be nice if you tried to help instead of being a *****.

 

With that attitude, it'll get you no where.

Anywho, your "friend" can buy a chrome bumper for his truck, and it will fit. Just make sure its a 99-03 bumper.

 

Attitude? I guess you didn't read or care about chidriver's post, Im trying to be as friendly as possible here... apparently the mere mention of chevy automatically turns me into the enemy. Maybe so on the street but I'm just trying to help out a friend here so it would be nice if we could all just get along...

 

Grr double post...

 

How will it look? Thats purely opinion...I think it would look weird with a chrome front and painted rear, IMO. I believe your just looking at a few large nuts and bolts. Stick your head under there and check it out but if I remember correctly from when I've been under there it should be fairly easy to replace...

 

Yea i thought it might look a little off too... but i guess he doesnt want to have to get it painted, its his truck so whatever??? Anybody know where to get a lower valance for a good price, couldnt find one on ebay and i doubt the dealer would be cheap...
