Been there done that. When I first got the bumper, which is probably a re-chromed original, I thought nothing of it and dented up my new bumper. Tried some rubber washers, didn't help much. That was a quarter century ago using original brackets and nice surfaces, though the wrong brackets.
Pretty sure I pulled them off a Blazer.
That will be my last expense, re-chromed and straightened bumpers. Nice idea on that star washer.
