Default C6-57 rear bumper install

Well Boys I unwrapped the rear bumper yesterday for the first time and installed it on the truck. We are building the rear tail light mounts to the fenders and figuring out how to hang a license plate cleanly. I would almost make it a trailer queen to not have to install the License plate.

The cab is on there with final paint and it has been buffed on the inside and out. The bed goes next week once I get the doors back from the buffer. The front clip short of the hood has been shot in final black. We were fitting the tail light stanchons to the truck with the bumper, and getting all the shim count right to get all the bed to cab gaps money and get eveything perfect.

Someday we will have in house paint.

Default bumper?

What all has been done to the bumper? I'm not real familiar with what a stock bumper looks like.

I've said it probably a hundred times, but damn - I love this truck!

Looks great Rodger!
Can you just do a street rod flip down kit for the license plate?
