    I was loading a few pics to the gallery and realized I never posted any after I got through swapping the bumpers out. The silver metaflake looks good, especially in the sunlight. Pics don't do it justice. Also installed the spoiler I got from Mavaholic on the decklid I got from Jared.

    Looks great! Is it possible to reduce that gap between the rear bumper and the end caps???

    I desperately need small bumpers, I'm jealous of all you guys doing your bumper swaps. It really boosts good looks!

    What size wheels/tires? I've got a set of wheels like that sitting around off of my dad's old Dodge that I could pick up for cheap. Look pretty nice.

    Hey Pal, got the old girl looking good. In case I never told you and because somebody is asking those wheels came off a Mazda B2300 or the equal to the Ranger of that year.
    You sure have her looking good. Wish my 72 was in that shape

    That car is really transforming. Looking great! And you sure did a better job on those bumpers than I ever could.
