Now I need to decide on a front bumper cover and side skirts. I like the Feed sides, but can't agree on the front quit yet...

go to the kyropractor (im a terrible speller lol)

they do wonders for your back, i prefer to not let them touch my neck....it seems too risky for them to jerk your neck until it cracks imo

hey the post in 82, the semi-after picture....on the far right part of the rear bumper, are you having it creased so that the rear bumper has more of an edge to it? so its not so rounded? thats what it looks like from the light reflection but im not sure. do you see what im talking about?

oh and...nemesis is cmr333 editing your front bumper too?

Nope - just the rear for now.

Sorry to joke about your back - pinched nerves suck. I had C6 and C7 fused together with bone out of my hip. I guess the docs modified me. Snowboarding accident it was...

yeah were the shrouds meet the bumper there will be a soft roll i guess to give the bumper a lil bit of definition and a new body line. it will look pretty sweet.
