Smoothed and Tucked Rear Bumper

Post by Lon »

I know there was a thread on modifying the rear bumper so it tucks closer to the body. Well I screwed it up and this the results of my experiment. I think it looks a lot better, and for me the modifications were free.

I'm not to worried about the damage from a wreck, I'm more worried about the other guy's insurance. My 99 S-10 was just totaled thanks to a stupid girl running a stop sign. It took nearly 6 months for me to see any money.

And since you modified the rear bumper, you would be in danger of getting no money. Insurance companies are funny that way. Not trying to nag, just my .02
