Default My final Mod for the summer will be.....

Yup thats right i picked up a Reat GT bumper today for $50. All thats left for me to do is get it repainted since its black, have it installed and finally have the exhaust tips raised. Should be all said and done after July 4th or so. Good part is that Ill have a discount at the Dealership so I can get it done for a good price. I seem to always find good deals on body parts for the stang. First is was the hood and now the GT bumper. Im damn good or maybe just lucky.

Sounds easy, but finding a v6 my color with a bumper in excellent condition like mine who wants to do it is the problem. Had some guys who wanted to but their cars were trashed and the bumpers were either scratched or chipped etc.. Mine is not at all. So the search goes on.
