Well I just bought front and rear for my 70 at 169 a pop. I do have a set of nice originals that I'm holding onto if I ever want show quality but I'll tell ya man......I like these bumpers a lot. I can see some grinding marks in mine, not bad though.

Make sure to get new production that hasn't been sitting on the shelf. The latest pieces say triple plate on the box.

There's a place in Rome N.Y. called Kings Bumper Co that advertises "show quality" I plan on calling tham soon for cost. Maybe somebody on here has used them and can reply on quality, service, and cost??

Now this is just what I have heard, but supposedly the new bumpers can not support the strain of using the factory jacks on them. And on a 69.... the factory bumperettes (guards) do no fit the bumpers.

Got repos for the 70 from NPD and I like em!Also took the time to mike each one and the repos were just as thick if not thicker than the originals.
