As I posted in the PM reply to your earlier query:

I have used one 1954 chromed rear bumper from Jim Carter (bought 15+ years ago). It has held up well, but you never know if they now come from the same source.

I have a chromed 1954 rear bumper from Classic Parts - it is about 5 years old but I have not yet installed it.

My suggestion is to email the seller and ask them if they guarantee that the chrome will not peel off and that rust-through will not occur on unscratched/undented chrome on the bumper. Hope they reply in email - keep the email.

Good luck,

Tim

By the way, did you (MFW) make the trailer hitch or buy it from a vendor? Please post photos when you have it installed. Where will you put the license plate?
