NOS bumpers are typically mediocre in quality.

I would offer no more than $450 each, tops.

My preference is a replated original, from a good plater...like TriCity Plating.

And if you are just going with a driver quality, repops are now available at $339 for a Cutlass, and $379 for a 442.

Can't even get an original replated for that money.

last winter i sold 2 NOS front 70 bumpers for $700 each. they were both pretty nice but not perfect. i seen some NOS 70 fronts i would not even use on a driver. NOS 70 fronts with real bad chrome still bring $400+. is the back bumper a 442 (cut out) bumper?

this does not mean that you will get the same amount out of one today but i would think you should.

I was not impressed at all with the repops, you could lean it against a wall and bend it in half with one foot. I will take a rechrome anyday

Just my opinion
