bumper madness (archive)

Here's the middle stage of my plan for bumpers. No, not euro bumpers. I used (except for a little black tape as a temporary coverup) all stock pieces from the original bumpers - bolts, etc. It took a little drilling her and there but here's what I have:

FRONT:
Front bumper gone along with the shocks. Lights relocated to cover shock holes. Black tape as a temporary cover until I refit the rubber from the front bumper.

REAR:
This is the tricky part. I inverted the curved rubber pice and re-attached it upside down. Then I took the rear rubber part of the bumper and put it in. I hammered the frame ends flat and bent the bolt holder up to add some support to the rubber. A little black tape helps to blend it in to the fender well (for now). It still needs some hack and slash but here's what we have so far:
