Smile Any interest in a Northern IN bumper fitting tech session?

I can't get my rear RS bumper to fit as well as I would like. Anyone want to spend a Saturday inhaling fiberglass dust and cussing?

Dennis,
I am not in a huge hurry. The bumper doesn't look too bad in it's gelcoated state.(and it's not getting driven alot right now) The fit is really close... just not quite right. Let me know when your schedule opens up and I will let you know if I still need help.

If you asked me 7 years ago when I lived in NW Indiana I"d say sure. But now in Jacksonville FL it's a little far to drive. Oh well time get the Ol 911 ready for this Sundays A-X down here. Good luck!

Heh, I just got rid of RS bumper. Well, it was a lousy fit and now it lays in the garage corner.

Instead of it, i got these:

How is March looking for anyone? Once I get it fitting right I can take it to the paint shop! At that time I will put on my Bursch.
