Thanks, Brad.

The measurements I'm looking for are (from the pics below)...

outer to outer (red) -- from outer on one side to the same spot on the other side
inner to inner (green) -- from inner on one side to the same spot on the other side
"deflection" (lt blue) -- the offset of the inside edge of the middle to the inside edge of the end

Brad · 03-19-2009, 07:58 PM

Sorry for the delay.
The green (as you've specified above, red in pic below) inside measurements are 60" and 66" across. It's really hard to tell the light blue measurement and I can only guesstimate it's about 10".

Gracias! I'll start measuring on this end to see if the Camaro bumper good place to start.

Let us know how she plays out ken cant wait to see what ya come up with.

A friend of mine had a truck with a roll pan on the rear with LED lights similar to what yours has on the front, but larger. His were molded in and painted over, I assume with a candy, but you couldn't find any tail lights until the lights came on.
I also like the split bumper idea for the rear.

Well, the magic hasn't hit me yet... for now, it's getting a Mar-K rolled pan, welded in place to get rid of all the seams on the front end. I'll have to do some head scratching to see where to go next on the bumper.

BTW, whatever I end up doing, it will almost certainly be blue... not chrome.

We have the dims and we have the bumpers. If you want just send us $50 shipping included to our paypal and its yours. We have messed up some when you ordered from us in the past. Its a display model but no dents, not bent or anything.
Thats if you decide on a Camaro bumper
