Chrome spray paint always looks like ass though. It will probably end up black or like Adam said, bed lined or undercoated.
It might.
Looks good cleaned up. Id put it on. White would be too much white on your rig
I agree.
Seriously, no matter what color you paint it, that will look awful. Throw it in the iron pile. Those make the **** ugly CUCV grille guards look okay.

Doesn't fit worth a **** anyways. I think im going to give up on grille guards unless I can find one of the smaller ones like whats on John's K10.
Here's what it looked like sat up on it. The bottom holes dont line up so either its bent to **** or my bumper is bent to ****. So I took it back off.
I took it on a little shakedown run after work to test out the locker and front axle & driveshaft. It did great. I hope to do some wheelin' this weekend and get some more pics or a video.
I only got these 2 poser pics, but you can tell it climbs pretty good now. I had the back left tire like a foot off the ground and I could teeder it in this pic
. Lockers are amazing. 
I found a leaking rear hub seal after this (the ones I didn't replace) so I put a new one of those in last night in the driveway.

You need one like the one that is on My Suburban, they clamp onto the bumper.

Can't remember what it looks like.
Something like this is exactly what I want, but for a 73-80 bumper.
Better than nothing, and wouldn't be as much of a pain in the ass to climb up and fix my carb.
I gave one of those away awhile back. I'll keep an eye out for another one. I have a CUCV one.

Ok thanks. I have a CUCV one as well but it won't work with my bumper, otherwise it would be on right now.
I like my front bumper.
