Who do the stainless bumpers for Jags etc. do a good job.

The only drawback is stainless scratches a little easier than chrome.

The price is great if it includes the over/under riders.
 
Exposed screws on the bumper rubber? Looks incorrect?

Wonder if the overrider rubber will fit my original 73 bumper?
Been looking for a new set. Must go down to the garage to check

I thought the actual bumper rubber goes on top of whats screwed on in the picture.
Don't have bumpers to compare to. I believe the overriders are available at WN for the price of gold.
 
I am very conflicted about the under riders. During the restoration a new rear panel was installed and I am loathe to bore holes in it to install those pieces....

I have seen quite a few coupes without the under riders.

I am with you, paradoxically the most important parts I prefer to be factory are holes...
 
There should be a metal strip that slides into the groove in the rear of the bump strips on both the front and rear bumpers and then the strips are riveted in place from the rear. I really don't like the screws through the front, that's really kinda jack-leg. I had a friend make those strips out of stainless steel.
