Hi guys, which one would be for a front bumper and rear Goodmark or OER

Your best bet is to rechrome. All the aftermarket I have seen are 'driver quality' and have imperfections and belting marks. Goodmark claims they redid their chroming process to improve quality but I havn't had any first hand experience with their bumpers since they did this.

Interesting you say that, as I called and talked to them this morning and asked if they have any issues with fit/finish and got an honest answer. They do sometimes get a wave effect from the stamping (according to him they all use the same manufacture,just rebrand it) that a rechrome can cure. BUT why would i buy a 240.00 repop and spend 350 to rechrome it?

I would either buy a repop and live with the imperfections or pay the money to get an original reworked and chromed. I don't see a point in rechroming a repop part.
