Early Citroen GS bumpers

[tony trans am]

Are early GS bumpers made of stainless steel?
I have managed to dent one corner and I’m wondering whether it’s cheaper to replace with new that seem to be chrome plated or have it beaten out.

Certainly my first 2 GSs had metallic bumpers and had a very shiny chrome looking finish but couldn't tell you exactly what they were made of. My CX also had them and when I reversed at high speed into of those wretched low concrete bollards I made a nice dent in mine. Solid though.

They are stainless.

Some (at least) South African assembled GS’s came with chromed bumpers rather than the normal stainless, along with local glass and interior carpet & upholstery.
