71 Hemi Challenger R/T - bumpers

[Archialfa]

I just saw this post on Facebook and I'm wondering about the bumpers color: they are body-colored + black? This was an option?

YES....Elastomeric bumpers

71 only... But they look great on a 70 too....

Is it possible to apply the elastomeric layer on regular chrome bumpers?

Did anyone paint the standard chrome bumpers to bicolor scheme like the elastomeric bumpers?

Over here where I live it is impossible to find a good chrome shop to redo the bumpers so in case I need to refurbish them it might be better to go for the bicolor option.

I've seen plenty of steel bumpers painted in body color, I see no reason you couldn't do a two tone, only challenge will be picking a place for the line & keeping it consistent... The elastomeric bumpers have a defined line molded in...

Easier to buy new rubber bumpers.

That orange 71 belongs to a friend of mine. I wish I had gotten to check it out before I left Kelowna. It's got a ton of options.

Three-tag car! Wish I had a better pic....
Four if you count the euro one... ;-)

Yes: I think for me that is the ultimate 71 E-body. He's got a really nice TX9 Hemi, 4 speed as well.
