i'm expecting the rear apron soon-ish, i started posting on wanted parts thread for a rear apron off an 88+ - i wanted to keep the oem look. good luck with your swap, i'll keep you posted once i start working on the rear.......i posted about spacing out the rear shocks so as to avoid having to cut/trim the bumper sides, i'm hoping it wont look too bad....if not i'll just have to bit the bullet and trim them up

[etta325]

just trim them up man. it will look alot better. they wont fit right at all with out them cut. and before you worrie with the swap you should do suspension bro. but other then that nice swap. better then mine with paint atleast, i think.

did you get yours pro-painted? well do suspension and the rear and then we will talk haha. too much 4x4

oh and get off the caps man. just ugly i think. at least get some weaves or something.

yeah yeah, im just not looking forward to doing it. i took the parts to a local painter, not too bad, kinda a short-term thing until i do a full respray...which will be AFTER suspension, which will mate up with some koni reps (or ronals)
