Restoration BN1

Lloyd is a new kid on the block. My BN1 that I bought in 1957 got bashed here and there and every where so now it is under frame up restoration. While there are a miriad of problems the one I post here is bumpers or not? The front is more simple as I put a cobra nose on it in 1960. So I'm looking for ideas to clean up the appearance but retain some sort of protection. Any suggestions welcome.

HI Loyd, welcome to the forum.Healey Bumpers do not really add much protection for the car except for minor impacts,so I really can not think of any upgrade that improves protection for the cars except to drive it very sensibly.--FWIW---Keoke
