I am wanting to buy a red bumper (front and back) for a 04-08 F150. PM me if interested and give me a price.

 

Perferably with fog lights.....

 

Why do you need to buy new bumpers?

 

Because I'm blacking out my truck and was planning on getting Black Ford fender flares or red Bushwackers and either look bad with the chrome bumper I have now....would rather just do a trade but willing to buy it to get it done.

 

Oh ok the reason I was asking is, I had chrome bumpers too, I got mine painted. I think you might be cheaper off paying around $300 to get them painted vs buying used ones and then have to get them painted if they are in rough shape.

 

How hard is it to paint the chrome as far as sanding and the actual painting?

 

I took it to a shop. The proper way of doing it, Before you start prepping it, it must be sandblasted first down to bare metal. If you dont get it sandblasted, the paint wont last.

 

Alright...see if I can't buy one first otherwise probably just do that.

 

10/4 man, just didnt want you to buy a used set that need to be painted cause they look rough, then your out more money.;

 

Ya definitly...



The Red One(Mine): 2005 XLT Scab, 18' Lariat rims, 2.5 leveling kit, Dual Magnaflow exhaust, Custom Sub, Black Westin bull bar, Recon smoked cab lights (Dodge), Chrome running boards, Custom Trailer, AVS bug shield, AVS rain deflectors, Chrome toolbox
The Silver One(Pop's): 2006 XLT Scab 31' Kelly Safari TSR's, Chrome toolbox, Bug Sheild, Mesh Grille cover, pinstripe

 

just get them powder coated...cheaper to do, AND last longer than any paint job. getting mine done for $200 front/back. takes 3 days for the process and drying time.

 

Would I have to still sand blast them or no?

 

I would think you would, cause I know if you dont, it usually wont last that long. Better to be safe than sorry.
