I looked at replacing it not long ago and it was still in good shape with minimal chipping. So I left it. If I remember I'll get a pic later.

Cool. I have perfect chrome bumpers so I just wanna wrap them instead of buying new raw bumpers and painting them.
Vinyl $75-$150
Bumper plus paint $1000
I vote option A lol
And when I go to sell it I can show the buyer there's an option to have chrome just a simple peel away

Yeah they wanted about the same amount of money to color match my bumpers. I opted vinyl. Here is a pic from toady. I think I installed 2-3 years ago.

You have black so it's nice to match up. Heres my blue with a flake, gonna be hard to match it up. Although I have a few leads.
You can see that flake.
If I remember this is 3m material at a local shop. Pretty close match up. But the guy said he would have to special order it and I would have to pay for the shipping which would cost more than the actual roll. Did I mention how much I hate it up here in Alaska

I would just paint it. Being plastic it would be easy and only cost a couple hundred bucks.
Mine are chrome (under the plastidip) and don't have a 100% guarantee on painting chrome.
Last night I installed the 3" upper and lower control arms, shocks and sway bar end links. When I take it to get aligned I'm going to have them replace the inner and outer tire rod ends.

Swapped out the old bulky reverse camera. I also swapped out the tag bolt lights and picked up some nnbs front brakes! I am going to order the ss brake lines asap.

Nice! Actual nnbs GM brakes, that's my plan too.
Gotta ask ...Have a link for the camera? and what are your thoughts on it ? Good view and lighting?
Thought about blacking out your esky 3rd brake light?

Thanks! I'm glad you said something I forgot to order the brake lines!

The night vision is better than the last camera and comparable to the nnbs factory cameras. I had to shim(1/8-3/6") the back of the camera because angle being a little low. That is due to being lowered. So far I like it but it's my wife's daily and I have yet to see if it is worth the money/time.
I'm not sure about blacking out the brake light. It matches pretty well to the aftermarket tails. Although the pics do not show it very well. I'm back and fourth on tinting the third brake light.

Swapped out the mirrors for some different signal mirrors with approach lights. They also had painted mirrors caps.
Also swapped out the passenger window due to pitting and had both re-tinted to match(finally)!
