Hmm, For some reason, that front bumper looks like it needs to be smooth, like this....

But I'd make it completely smooth, go over the plate area as well. I think that would look hot!

Default Re: my new pile of sheet metal. (project RoRo Revive)

the body will all be taken care of after it drives. I only put the initial attention on the body so it dosent look like a big pile of junk behind my buddy's shop. I plan on cleaning up the bumper even more, prepping the car inside and out, and having it painted flat black on the outside and something TBA on the inside. Truthfully I'd like to have the euro front bumper and possibly an SVT rear bumper but right now its more important to me to get this heap back on the road and do it as economically as possible. (seriously, everyone that has or is donating parts, you guys are the best. )

all in good time.

I would agree with this. I've always wanted to do that to my bumper, but now that it's on this car...I'd love even more to see Patrick do this to my bumper...

Patrick I've still got that non armrest center console for you if you want it. I've also got what I think is a great idea on some motor mounts if you still need some. You could buy me the VF motor mounts and I'll give you my stock ones. What do you think brother?
