gt40dude Posted July 4, 2009 Report Share Posted July 4, 2009 i took apart a bumper assembly i got and the metal support is pretty much just rust. so ill probably need that and maybe a front bumper cover. shipped to 24171.

gt40dude Posted July 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 no bumper supports out there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helrazr70 Posted July 9, 2009 Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 Most bumper supports are rusty in the center because the foam holds water against it whether you are in the north or south. THe geographical location only determines the severity of the rust. I have a spotlessly rust free southern car with a rusty bumper support. (it's bent and I need a new one also) The best thing to do is find one with no penetrating rust holes and grind the rust completely off. Then either cut/patch/weld it with new metal or treat it with POR15 and reassemble. It's hidden anyway. Rust free ones are out there, but anyone who knows these cars will ask a small fortune for it based on their rarity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
