Custom front bumper

Looking to replace the front bumper on my E-150 that I can paint to match the lower 2-tone. I've been considering swaping my chrome one for a stock cargo van type that I can paint I saw this one on a van for sale.

Can anybody give me a sources for a nice aftermarket front bumper??

Thanks,

Mike

I can think of 2 options:

1- Keep the chrome bumper and add an aftermarket skirt
2- Go to a salvage yard for an integrated piece, like the blue van. Where are you located?

I have seen online custom bumpers (with integrated fog-light holes) which go for $ 300 or $ 400.

Henry, thanks, I'm in southern CA, where can I find an aftermarket with fog lights?

I have a maroon/silver 2 tone, I'm going to paint the top viper red (to match my car) and I think it will look better with the bumpers painted body color (silver). If I don't go the aftermarket route I'll find a steel stock bumper and paint it silver. On the rear I'm thinking of switching to a plain steel step or steel non-step and painting it too.

I sat at the beach a few weeks ago and thought I need to get rid of the chrome and go body color (picture it with the upper red and the biumpers silver) I hear a bunch of $#it from my friends at the track for towing with a van. I really like the fundtionality over the pickup's and this van has so much to offer for so little $$$'sss

I was just looking into these last week since I was liking a van to buy, which had bad skirts.

Ford E150 Front Bumper - Buy E150 Front Bumper

There was another one I saw, but I can't find it now...
