how is the chrome finish on these bumpers? Are these bumpers lighter and less durable than the factory oem ones?

The chrome finish looks nice and is holding up to the winter weather>The bumper is as heavy as the stock bumper and possibly stronger.

The chrome finish looked good. I did not weigh the bumpers on a scale but the replacement did feel somewhat lighter.

It's not show chrome but looks good. Mine has a slight orange peel texture to it but you have to be real close to see it.

Yes they are full chrome. In fact I never even used the ones that I purchased. Shoot me your email and I'll send you my craigslist link.Thanks.

Hi Adriano, This is a black bumper. I believe the chrome bumper image you're seeing is in error and may have already been fixed (the image I am seeing now is of a black bumper yet the thumbnail below is chrome). It is accurately described in the listing: "Dual stage powder coat finish incorporates an initial E-coat layer covered by a durable gloss Black powder coat." Thanks, Mike

Can't answer safety standard questions. However, I run a high end auto repair shop. Quality of fit and function is important. We had the old bumper off and the new one installed in less than 45 minutes. No problems. FYI, this product is only a shell. Your real bumper that provides the "safety" is channel steel which this chrome shell attaches to.

No, this is the chrome bumper only and you'll have to either purchase the stabilizer components or re-use the existing if they can be repaired. You'll also have to buy the rubber inserts or re-use existing as this is the 'bare bumper'

I purchased and installed mine in December 2011, and they are excellent. The chrome is in fantastic shape with no pitting or any issues, and the LEDs are all still working great. I definitely recommend them as additions to your turn signals, but not sure they are sufficient as a total replacement. I would buy these again without hesitation.

Hi, this bumper is a rear chrome bumper. The reason the details say metallic finish is because there is no option for chrome.

Chrome look. Look as good or better than the originals and appear to have a better design in the fastener design that holds them on the wheel

The front is chrome. The sides are clear. These are very nice looking. I have been very happy with the purchase.

They are pretty good. If ur going to be offroading with it and hitting trees and stuff it's pretty good. My bumper mounted one has a gaurd protecting it. My roof one the mounts have held up great

Good afternoon. I knocked the passenger side mirror so replaced both. You can buy chrome, black or white on amazon for best price. Ours is a lariat so all chrome but we did black and it looks good. It wasn't a simple j9b but saved about 1000. Bucks. Have a good day

Thank you for the inquiry. We stopped selling the "satin" finish version due to poor response. The chrome version looks great down below once you install it. The chrome compliments the bright (brilliant) chrome accents of the upper grille frame and headlight ballasts. Accesspeed also offers a Lifetime Warranty on it, as well. Please let me know if you have any other questions. Thank you.

They are Chrome colored plastic or ABS. The center has no logo like the originals, and plastic lug nut covers are black. They look nice but will not fair well against a hard impact like a steel rim. Also, I would suggest not using any wheel dressing (tire slick) product as the chrome coating may wear off.

they are chrome, the hold downs are black plastic, I like them, been on my car 2 years and still look great.

This bumper is just the chrome steel. If your top piece and center plastic inlay are damaged you will need to find them elsewhere. My biggest difficulty is finding the center plastic inlay that goes inside the chrome, and the bottom air dam that screws underneath at the very bottom of the bumper. Other than that, this was a great buy, it came fast and fit perfectly. Really brought my truck back to to its original look. Best of luck to you

I thought it was a better bumper than the factory one. it had more bracing and more bolts than the bumper that came on my 2013 Sierra. The bolts were larger and brackets were made as well if not better. I would definitely purchase it again over the factory one, especially for the price difference. The only thing thin is the two chrome covers but that is the same way as the factory one.
