Default 1975 Bumper Covers

Replacing Bumpers Covers with fiberglass, When doing this would the perfered way be having them still removible or glass them in with no seam. Any insight would help.

Thanks
Ed

Welcome to the site Ed.
There are a number of posts on this topic here on CF.
I'd suggest a quick search for more info than you can absorb.

To answer your question, there is no preferred method.
It's your car, do it like you want.

As for resale, I'd assume leaving the seam would be better.
As for appearance, personal taste.

Good luck with your project!
Pictures are always welcome too!

Leaving the seam will also help for faster and cheaper repairs if the bumper was damaged
