Painted bumper opinion wanted

for right now i think that color is your best pick later on after the rocks and bugs starting knocking chips in it I would be saving money for chrome I like chrome better but sometimes you have to just wait and thats what makes putting one back together so great for short time and money oh and sweat

I couldn't have said it better.For now I have to pick where to spend my $$$ and it's better spent on something that can't easily be changed later yet looking as good as possible.
I have a friend that restores classic cars and he says there is a way to HELP protect a painted bumper.Check out this web site he has restored most of these Hudsons and I have even helped on a few
