    and then

    the 2057 bulbs are brighter than the 1157. the 2056 are brighter than the 1156. they go in the turn sig. and tail lights.
    today i put on a new dash pad, heater core, swaped the lower dash to the early tray style,changed my inst. cluster, put the 8525 bulbs in it and put on my new steering wheel and installed my chrome grille.:slap: i know i am forgetting something:rolleyes: . i know, i went and looked at the mav. parts i spoke of earlier. he wants $100 bucks for the front fenders or $150 bucks for the whole car. guess i just bought another mav.
    a couple of pics of my front bumper "slide".

    Looks good Frank. How about a pic of the whole car so we can see the complete effect that the bumper mods made on the cars appearance?
