Re: New Pics
Looks clean! I like how the two tone has been run through the door jams. It would be even better if those wheels and tires got a little attention.

They got the same exact treatment, there is over spray all over them
Hopefully I will be getting something in the 22'' to 24'' range soon.

it looks like it's been narrowed a bit. Something I'd like to do to mine sometime.

Looks good. IF you find a place that will chrome it let me know. Everyone I talked to said they would not chrome a welded bumper.

Re: New Pics
I have found a couple of places that will rechrome a modified bumper, here in Houston. The prices range, but if I recall, I planned on spending about $250

that's not bad.... does that include any polishing and copper filling, or is that just the price for a dip?

Re: New Pics
It's been awhile, and I don't really know the process that well. They told me the price could go up if they have to do alot of work to it, but sometimes do a little cleanup for free. Here is who I think I was gonna use
Auto Chrome Plating

I shortened it an inch on each side of the plate holder.

I wanted to do that but I couldn't find a second bumper anywhere and didn't want to buy a new one for such a small section. I'm thinking of putting some 4'' fog lights side by side n that area but who knows. I'm ready to drive this thing.
