| Not a huge problem... The easiest way (without touching any body work) would be to fabricate some new bumper irons that mount between the wing and front apron. Just have to remove a small section of wing beading, and you're away. BTW, looks real cool with the new wheels!  You still gonna add red to the doors and quarter panels? | |

| why dont you just cut some new slots ....if you're worried about the paint ....the rubber seals will hide any small 'accidents' ....after that its a touch up brush ............ looking really cool by the way | |
