70-72 Cutlass/442 bumper brackets,powder-coated
I have been taking hoards of parts to the powder-coater in the last month,and the last trip,I took every bumper bracket I could find.These were all nice brackets to start with,or I would not have kept them.I should have them back this week,so if anyone is looking,let me know.I have fronts & rears.The rears are the same for 70-72.I have 70 fronts,and 71-72 fronts.I've done my radiator supports,and they look great.Getting ready to do some hardtop and convertible frames.

What color do they use for these parts. Is it just called matte black? It is funny you are doing this because I was planning to take a convertible frame and some other parts with me when I get my parts done.
Can you tell on the core support that it is not paint? I think I am going with paint for it.

They can do a variety I colors and gloss levels.So far,I have used the same black on the parts I have done so for. My 71 core support looks NOS.It was mint to begin with.If I end up needing a different sheen on a piece that I have already done,I can used the coating as a base,then put the desired color on top.

I was not that clear on my question. I have had alot of off road stuff powder coated in the past and sharp edges almost look rounded off. I always told them it was off road stuff so they may have put it on thicker on my parts? I had not really thought about powder coating the core support but you have me thinking now. If the edges still look nice I may consider it. Sorry for jacking the thread.

I don't have any top plates left at all,or at least none that I can find. I had a 4-row top plate done.
I should have some of this short bumper braces available. I have them a pile of them.
This powder coat is not super thick. It leaves all the definitions,stamped letters,etc.

I'll have a better idea in prices when I get them back this week.
The only bumper pieces that I am short on,are the ones that run from the frame to the center,over the license plate.I have plenty of everything else.
I am starting to gather more pieces for the next trip.Alternator brackets,power steering brackets,more A-arms,jack bases and hooks,and whatever is black.

Originally I needed bumper brkts, but I took care of that since. I didn't know you had them back yet according to info available in this thread, so I guess Im way out of date. So I was mostly curious to what happened, what you got.
