    bumper tuck

    i did a search and came up empty

    Approx how much will a bumper tuck take the diving boards in? Anyone got some before and after pics?

          Maybe you should have searched my original thread for that little snippet. Sorry to admit it, but the search feature on this site blows.

          Back on topic, i just want a pic or two of before and after.

            Mine are getting done this weekend, depending on how much snow we get/ how cold it gets.

                      fyi, there's also a 5-6 page discussion on tucking bumpers over on e30tech.com, in the appearance section

                        alum. bumpers look even better when you paint them before (or after tucking). I never tucked mine, because the alum. bumpers don't look bad painted black to match the car...

                            Sorry guys, but there's a new contender in the house for best looking tucked / painted bumpers... (until I do mine, that is :twisted: )
