An 83 era bumper will bolt right up and in my opinion looks better than the 75 style.

Please don't try to fake a chrome bumper tail onto your '75. I'm telling you this for your own good...

Is it worse than putting on an 80-82 bumper???

I am one of those, it's your car, do whatever makes you happy.
But also agree...if you want a Chrome bumper car...buy a chrome bumper car...besides you will probably end up spending as much money to do the conversion as it would have cost to just get a chrome bumper in the first place.
