We never got a chrome rear bumper in Australia for our brumby but I've seen the brat did in the US.

 

Just wondering if this is a common part over there? Are there brat specialists who would stock something like this and be willing to ship to Australia?

 

Thanks

My brat had a chrome bumper. It was mangled in an accident by the pervious owner. I tried to find a used one, but the chrome bumper is very rare. I had mine straighten out by a body shop the pounds the bumper straight.

Finding an original chrome 1982-only BRAT bumper is tough.

 

I have a spare black one you could have rechromed (I can even recommend a good chrome plater for the plastic light surrounds). Will need some panel work though as it had a hole drilled in it for a trailer plug (I ended up buying a chrome one out of the US last year and got the last part back from the chrome platers last week). As far as I know they are the only 2 in Australia. The AgQuip bumper is another option if you can find it.

 

Note the bumper won't fit a standard width license plate, as it's designed for USDM (shorter than our plates). I switched to slimline and curved it around to fit. 

That's awesome. Could you send be a picture of what you've got? Would that be insane to freight to qld?

Not as insane as from the US

 

Here's the existing bar (I haven't finished re-assembling the chrome one, had EJ blocks all over my workbench until yesterday).

Photo doesn't work for me

Not sure if I have the covers (the AUDM bumperettes have covers where the bumper bracket goes, the USDM have the same covers but with a cutout to allow the bumper through) - I can provide templates as I don't have mine fitted yet!

Photo should work now, hit refresh. Freaking Photobucket links, I have to type them in manually on this site for some reason..grr

That's sex. If you want to pm me I'd be interested in talking about this.

I have one, 150+ shipping. I'll be making a custom for it

 

Are you in wa as in Western Australia or in the states?

Am I mis-reading this thread? DFOYL has a gen 2 BRAT Bumper like the one in pic for sale?
