why would i be leaning on the end of my bumper? for that matter why would anyone be leaning on my bumper? if anyone sees my car id advise not to lean on my bumper!

there was so much rust in the rear quarters that they where pretty much replaced, there for the gap between the rear panel and the bracket is in my view a little large and would look sh*t bolted to the car so i have decided not to do so...

I consider myself lucky I never bolted in the tabs on my rear bumper, since it saved my quarter panels from any damage when I got rear ended. If I had the bolts in, the quarters would have been pulled outwards.

Okay... Just curious as to why. I suppose no one really leans on them. Excellent build by the way.

all the door cards are in now they look soooo good.
my misses and shawn have talked me into re-trimming the front drift kevlar seats. i was out voted on this so now ill have to wait a little longer to see the finished interior. the back of the seats will be painted to match the rest of the interior. more $$$$ it never ends

dash has been painted had all the gauges wired up and Shaun fitted it looks awesome. just waiting for the heater vent to come back from the chromers to finish up the dash but Shaun had one of my old ones and test fitted the whole thing up. unfortunately for us he cracked part of the dash near the vent hole while making it fit so **** me it has to come out and go back to painters one step closer and they pull it away... any way here's a few pics have to get some better quality ones
