Yes, I have replacement chrome bumpers for $149 (plus ACTUAL shipping cost; others charge an extra $15 "handling fee" on bumpers in addition to their already-padded shipping charge). The rear bumpers are comparable in quality to the $400 O.E.M. bumpers, except that they lack the holes for the impact strip (you'd have to drill holes or simply not use the strip). The front bumpers have the impact stip holes.
