Hi everybody.
I know there are quite a few topics on backdating from the BUB to chrome bumpers, but couldn't really find the answer i was looking for, so here goes: I am considering a bumper-backdate for my '75 US car, but i am not really liking the idea of doing too much "permanent" modification to the car. Is there any way to avoid the cutting/welding usually involved in the process? I was thinking that maybe fiberglass bumpers would be an option here? Anyone with first-hand experience on this? |

Also the lips on the side where the ends of the bumper cover hook onto the body.
