1969 Road Runner bumpers

[Kevin Bisgrove]

I had Tri-City re-plate my original bumpers on my A12. $1,070 for both shipped from Tennessee to Florida in March of last year. Cost me <$100 to ship them up to them. I have a Dart that they re-plated the bumpers on almost 20 years ago. They still look like they were done yesterday. Between my desire to reuse as many of the original parts from my A12 as possible and my experience with Tri-City previously it was a no-brainer for me. I used Bumper Boys several years ago on another project car. Horrible choice. Poor quality plating and the backs of the bumpers got rusty before I even got them bolted on - I had to paint the backsides black just to be able to use them. No personal experience with AMD.

I like the idea of reuse too and if I could get them done for that price I would. I'm in Victoria, BC though. I hear there is a good place on the mainland but that they are quite pricey as well.
I have lots of time to decide... Lol
