ya cant see them anyway unless your down looking up and most lowered trucks you wouldnt be able too do that anyway.
oviously these are not for everyone but i gotta say it seems alot of thought went into making these.
good job and a awesome product.

These bumpers are not reworked originals. They are new design aftermarket bumpers manufactured by Key Parts. They were made special by eliminating visible mounting bolts. The top part is also deeper to tuck in toward the tailgate to eliminate the need for gravel deflectors. The ends are also tucked in more. I have to agree that they are a nice idea, but there is no reason for them to put two additional holes into an already smoothed bumper to use for the chroming process. They should have used the mounts on the back of the bumper for that process. I haven't seen the original painted version, but all pictures look like they don't have the two holes at the bottom. That's the way it should be. After all… It's supposed to be a smoothie bumper.
