This how you wrap a bumper for shipping.. reinforced edges with cardboard, Styrofoam, bubble wrap, air bags, and then wrapped with cardboard and 5 black garbage bags and finally wrapped with 7 rolls of tape. Got all the supplies from my job for FREE!

All of my bumper packaging has been done in an actual box with reenforcements in the actual box so if they set something on top of it, it wouldn't have any affect on the actual bumper inside(bumper keeps its shape even with bumper not in the box). Def a necessity with a FG bumper.

If it fiberglass def the approach I would have taken ... but its just my OEM poly. Even if it was fiber .. it would be dam near impossible to damage!

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRR just got back my first CPA exam I took in July. Got a 73, missed out by 2 f'n points!!!!! well at least I didn't bomb it. I may not be able to make it to that Oct 15 meet depending on how studying goes. I need to pass all 4 sections by Dec 31 to get my tax-free bonus, otherwise Uncle Sam will be getting 2 G's of that bonus and stealing from my mod $$$$

Yeah, Diego sent me the vid this morning. Should have been out over 2 months ago. His headlights don't look like that nor does he even have CV3's on his car anymore...

just an FYI...stock fronts aren't poly, they're reenforced ABS plastic. That's why they can crack. Poly doesn't crack, it just bends. That's why I got a poly lip.

18 minutes and counting till I'm off work to get home and play Gears! If ANY of you have Xbox, i HIGHLY suggest you getting Gears3. Its 9.5 and 5 stars on every single review you can find. BY FAR the best of the Gears of War trilogy ...and addicting as he//!!!!!!
