Chrome Bumpers
Heading to the F100 show in TN next week and placed an order with MEF for my new bed kit, fenders, running boards and a couple other small items. Crossed my mind that I am going to be needing bumpers in the future and might as well save some shipping and get them while I'm there. Problem is I can't tell much if anything about the bumpers from MEF as their images are so small on the website. Seems their price is a bit higher than some of the others, could be wrong on that. My question is do most all these vendors get their bumpers form the same supplier? Any one's that much better than the other? Anyone get theirs from MEF that would like to share a pic (front or rear) trying to decide I should ask them to throw a set on the truck for me. Thanks

You obviously think the stainless is worth the extra hundred each then?

I bought a chrome bumper for the front and a year later when I decided to put a rear bumper on I went with stainless. Both looked great. I don't know if the stainless was worth the extra money or not because the chrome one looked equally as good and has held up well. I know "stainless is forever" but I think if I had it to do it over I would just get the chrome bumpers and save the extra money for something else.

I do...absolutely! Never have to worry about thinning plating and surface rust with stainless.
