so iv got the car about all wrapped up. iv taken it out for a fewtest drives, and all seems well. i want to really go drive it, but i have got to figure out a front bumper. the stock one will work but i will have to hack the crap out of it. so im looking for a bumper. something that is a little more flush in the front, going to the ground. if any one has any ideas, or maybe even a lip, so i can just cut my bumper off right under the backing and attach it there. any way any help with this would be cool, ill post a pick of the front also. thanks

if you can find one, the front bumper from a 1G Colt Vista wagon

there is 2 of them at my wreckers. i think i will check it out. i really like the way it looks. thanks. oh and xxxmonoxidechild, i have 2 i have told you that befor. pay for the shipping and one is yours. i have one from a 86 with the big side markers, and one from a 87, there almost the same. close enough that uless you look really hard you wont notice. i dont know what year your car is but if the vista bumper will work for me you can have the 87, or the 86 is yours.

thats worth it to me. i could afford that next check probably. g/f has been trying to convince me to junk the poor colt lately over the winter since its just under the car cover. but i couldnt let that happen. after all the work and getting the engine running again alone. stupid hobbies. lol
