Show Me Your S Bumper Sans Trim

I'm thinking about removing the old deco trim from my front bumper....then fill the holes and repaint Would like to see examples of others that have done this if you have pics convenient. Also need tips and pitfalls even tho it seems pretty straight forward.

TIA,
Joe

I have a F/G S bumper so it has no trim. This is the best view I have. The black grill is custom installed by me to feed the oil cooler.

You'll notice I have my priorities in order. We really need to replace the driveway.
I'll probably replace the rear bumpers as soon as I'm done with the engine rebuild.

I think it looks better when you remove the rockers too. Good luck

I just replaced the entire bumper with an S bumper so no filling of holes necessary. Also left the T trim below the doors as well as all trim on rear.
