bumper opinions.
ive been tossing this around and arguing with a few people about which would look better. so let me know what ya think.
also remember the SS grill is gone. it is bent, so i would have to get a new one to take it back the way it was.
take it back the way it was and spend alot more money and take longer to do.
or
go with chrome bumpers and gray plastic valance like this truck, it would be chrome front and rear to match.

I vote get your grill back or go billet (I like the offset ford emblem) Then chrome bumpers with PTM valance panel. I think it looks more custom that way. Not to mention Chrome doesn't chip, so you won't have rust issues as quickly.

The only issue with the SS is you could always see the original ford emlem or something behind it. it was faint but you could see it. This is why i like billet better on these generation trucks. Now the billet isn't as picture friendlyunless you go black but it looks great in person.
In the back I would get a roll pan. They are cheap and you could add a tube underneath later on like scott g's truck. If you have more time than money I would do the double c-channel or square tube roll pan that a couple of guys have done. It's a manly rollpan.
Bottomline, It's all a work in progress. Get it driveable then start modding again. It never stops and you are never done. You know the deal.

I would go with the same set-up as you had before. You know it looks GREAT, im sure someone can photoshop a chrome bumper also, that would probably look good too.
As for the rear, i would just keep the monochromatic stock edge rear bumper.
