    You linked to the thumbnail of your cars pictuer buddy.. But frm the small picture it looks pretty good! Get that picture problem fixed though and we should have no problems.
    Alas, no more 3gee. She was a wonderful car and will be missed..

    No more 92 hatch either! I go through cars too much.

    Re: Custom 1989 hatch newbie here!

    Those bumpers must weigh a ton? Did they start cracking yet? I like your idea and that you fabricated that stuff yourself, but I would question the strongevity of that design, seeing how you fiberglassed and bondoed on top of masking tape and used regular bondo on the plastic bumpers.
    Did you think of making a mold of the bumpers you have now so you could make a solid and entirely fiberglass copy? It would require more work though, but should result in better quality and much lighter bumpers.

    Judging by the pics the car looks nice though.
