    According to a recent Rod & Custom article “The bumpers were carved from modeling foam, then covered with fiberglass resin, before being used as bucks to cast the finished versions from aluminum. They were then machined prior to being copper plated in preparation for the chrome to come”. Interesting technique.

    Yes. I’ve seen a similar technique where you start with a big block of cash, and keep carving away till there is a small block of cash. Haha.
