Default Before and After of bumper restoration on the '83 1500S





Next I've got to do the front bumper and side moldings. I'll probably do those Saturday.

My brother was gracious enough to finish these while I had to work today. It came out looking great!

BTW, I used "Trim Black"...I forgot who makes it. I work at Pep Boys so I just buy what we sell

Great job man, looks awesome. While you're at it, hit up those wheel wells with a can of black enamel.
