Re: "new" grachics on my '93 GMC long bed
For anyone that might be interested, here are a few more pics of the work I've done this year. The rear bumper was originally black with patches of missing paint and surface rust. I also replaced the original front bumper with a used OEM unit that isn't tweaked. I was also chrome until I tried, and basically failed, to polish off the very small bits of rust on it. What I ended up doing is sanding it in the same manner as the bare metal so that it would blend in, pretty much. I also removed the front plate holder, installing metal valve stems with dice caps in the holes for the hardware. I just thought it would be a neat and different detail. I also replaced the filler panel for below the grill, painting it and the side bumper fillers in the process. Unfortunately, I don't have any detailed pics of the front bumper at the moment.
