1969 Cutlass front bumper

After years of promising a reproduction front bumper for the '69 Cutlass they are pretty scarce. BAP offers one for $429.00 but I have heard mixed reviews. Anybody with first hand knowledge before we purchase?

I know where on is in Dawsonville Ga. and I have a beat up one round here some where that needs to be straightened.

The one on the car now is not really that bad. We're just 'weighing' the decision to re-do this one or buy a re-pop. He'd prefer a re-pop if it's a good quality one.

I have heard a few reviews of the rear repops and they were pretty good. They are selling for $300 on ebay. Are the fronts out on the market now? I had my rechrome done for $500 it was rust free but badly misshapen.

We put a re-pop rear bumper on a few months ago and it's beautiful and fits real well. Lots of rear bumpers available but AFAIK the one that BAP carries is the only '69 re-pop I could find on the market.

Its possible they might just be taking pre-orders and the bumpers may not be out yet. This is what they did with the rears and they were delayed for months. Im not sure, might want to double check before you buy

I bought one of the rears from Tamraz.
They said they were tooling up for the front ones.
No word yet, but I am looking too.
