"SPORT" bumper alternative
 
Well im not sure if this is common or everyone has seen this done before but i went to a junkyard for some parts and saw this "sport" bumper. I am ashamed to say that bought it and it wasn't until I got home that i realized that it was not original. Its a 73-87 bumper with the side "wings" carefully cut off. Needless to say i took it back because i need an original. But I wanted to share this because It looked good and you can get these bumpers for almost nothing. They used the 73-87 brackets and it looked like a bolt on. well kind of, im sure they had to drill some new holes and there were some washers stacked to change the angle a little. Sorry no pictures of that.

I don't think it looks that bad.

It will do just fine until the inevitable rear ender, then you can get a correct one.;)
