Slobaknobyo- I will get you the name of the kind we use on our racecar. We put after market noses and tail peices on it that are made of plastic like that of a rubbermaid trashcan. Its dupont and some real good ****. Will let you know tomorrow.

and btw, aren't you getting a custom rear end with rollpan and whatnot? what do you need the bumper for? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

If you're getting the tailgate shaved and painted, let the body shop do the door handles and the bumper pad.

Hey crazy, you ain't figured out yet he doesn't know what the heck he wants? I'd bet he goes with AIM/Chassis Tech(cheap) rather than do a custom 4 link.

at a body shop it's 220 for just materials to paint the interior parts...(door panels, dash, pillars...etc.) and i don't want to even think about what labor would be...and i am going with a custom 4 Link and panhard bar backed by coilover shocks and a 3/4 lowering from DROP ZONE in Pantego, Texas...and probably some Caddy tail lights also.
