Title: front bumper/valance modification
Post by: don33 on July 08, 2011, 03:32:49 PM
Has anyone ever modded a front bumper cover off another vehicle to work/look good on a pinto ?   the one on my 84 mustang would be close in size and would look good.  I'm sure there must be others that would work.  has anybody done this ?

Front bumper on my 72 is made of fiberglass. Very light weight but has to be a zero mph kind of bumper !

I've seen the fiberglass bumpers but it seems they only make them for 71 - 78 models. havnt been able to find any for a 80...

I am going to remove the skirt, front and rear, trim, sand and powdercoat black. It should really improve the look.

that sounds interesting, have to see how it looks...   I was thinking a bumper cover off a neon or somthing similar might fit ?
