I've given myself a deadline of Oct 1 to get the car running/driving. That will give me a couple of weeks to debug and wrap up some details before the 05 FFC (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)
It will be a challenge to get it done in time, but I do have a shot at it. I try to get things done quickly but the details just always seem to take more time.... and $ (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/ohmy.gif) I've been making some progress and will share some pics as I continue to get things done. Here's some pics of my rear bumper progress. Started with a very low rust rear bumper. Attached image(s)

Painted the back side of the freshly re-chromed bumper. It had some discoloration in a couple of areas. I know! No one will see the back side, but it looked like it would be more succeptible to rusting (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wacko.gif) Plus it looked like the factory painted the back sides of the bumpers for some reason (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/confused24.gif)
