New Bumper Color?
Since the paint on the bumpers of my 55 has seen its better days, I am thinking about painting them white. Thought it may look nice with the white top and teal blue paint. Opinions?

To be honest, I like it black as it is. I think it matches your running boards and the rear bumper. FYI, people say I have a weird taste in color though...

IMHO, it would compliment your color scheme better than the black. Can't go wrong either way.

Steve, if you have a new Mac's catalog, look at the cover. Shows a '57 done this way (may have been stock, as I recall).

Sorry I don't have a way to scan it, would have no idea how to post it anyway.
