Think it's been asked before and doesn't seem to be made. Get a stocker, weld and fill, send away to have chromed. Truck looks pretty clean.

i know i've come across a smooth rear bumper for the 1st gens in the past.............

call these guys to see if their listing has the holes or not.

also try these other guys.

i'm gonna call the local guys i deal with (i'm pretty sure it was through them that i got the smooth one last tie).

You're redoing the truck? That thing looks sweet, sweet color combo. I would say don't go with roll pan and stock with your idea of smooth bumper, proof have to just fill the holes of stock bumper. That truck looks sweet with that chrome bumper.Wha all are you doing to the truck?

The reason why i am redoing the truck is because i use it for music. i cracked the roof and the door..the only way to fix the roof was to remove the wall so i figured i might as well change a few things up while it was apart..im filling in the emblem holes removing the moldings and doing it two tone using the same color scheme.

You cracked the actual metal roof or do you mean the headliner? And when you say wall do you mean side plastic or something?
