    Well I've been cutting and tryin to mock up the bumper, so I'm riding around wit no bumper for a while. But I cut the bottom half off the gt bumper 2day and trimmed up sum of the civic bumper. Also went to Home depot and bought a few things I needed.

    Got sum Fiberglass resin, bondo, fiberglass mats, sandpaper, brushes for the resin. Gonna borrow a friends pop rivit gun and gonna start back on the project thurs nite. I have 2 work tues/weds/thurs and then I'm off till tues so I should have the bumper done by then.

    And also still waitin on my stuff to come in the mail that I need to turbo. I will be postin up pics this thurs or fri when I get bak to a comp. I've taken plenty of pics jus dnt have my own computer. But I think once everything is done wit the bumper its gonna look pretty sick. And while I'm at it I'm gonna be custom makin a grill that I have. But neways, check bak towards the weekend cuz I usualy dnt work on my car when I have 2 work in the mornin. But ill be workin all weekend to get this done fast.

    Enjoy

                        Trust me you say that you can find one now but when the winter gets here and you don't want to have your custom bumper on you probably wont be able to find one because the cars got crushed. oh and it looks like a stratus bumper.
