Deadline 10/1/05 -I might make it???, Rear bumper install my way Options

[Doug Leggins]

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.

Painted the back side of the freshly re-chromed bumper.

Okay, this is probably a dumb question and I'm overlooking the obvious. The chroming process is an electrolytic dipping process. When you get a part like the bumper chromed, why isn't the backside plated as well as the front? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/idea.gif)

BTW, your car looks great.
