Does anyone make a smooth front bumper for a FB???

I like the look when the side molding is removed from the FB but (as you know) the front bumper has the molding built into it (by the side markers).

Now what I want to know is there a front bumper that will replace it an d smooth it off?


Thanks ,
Bart

You can backfill your current bumper mouldings with bondo and sand them away. Someone on here did that, it looked pretty good.

I used a 91 Chevy Metro I found at the junk yard and did a little cutting and shaping. I did the rear also.
