Here is my repaint of last summer. I still have chrome molding and early bumpers to add. The "before" paint was horrible, especially on the roof, with lots of chalking and delamination.

i notice in this picture....



you have a small, chrome bumper...the original big bumper shock covers are in place...how did you install the bumper and do you have a pic of it straight on, showing the bumper on the car
_________________

The bumpers are installed in the lower slots, with the front valence cut open to accomodate. I shortened the shock covers slightly (on the bumper side) and then angled them up to the original mounting points on the front valence and screwed them in. The downside is:
1) they angle up and look a little awkward
2) it stresses the front valence slightly

Here's a few shots from near level (note I havent' yet filled in the original bumper holes on the sides;).

It's amazing what some grille badges and new headlights will do as well. I have plenty of before and after pics, as I'm sure many of you do, however, they'd take up way too much room and they'd get me thinking that it's time to find something else that needs to be fixed!
