nomuken Posted February 25, 2016 Author Share #49 Posted February 25, 2016 (edited) So, the suspension is dialed in. I fitted the BRE style lip, did some more minor things.

Yes, looks way cleaner, especially on the way to big 73 bumpers. Unfortunately the chrome underneat is quite scratched. But my bumpers are all in all only nice from a 10feet disance. The rubber strips are all brittle and the chrome is quite gone in some places. I will get some new bumpers once my bank account lets me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martzedcars Posted February 26, 2016 Share #52 Posted February 26, 2016 For better rubbers... lay them in hot wasmachine soap for a week.. make it hot sometimes, wash 'm by hand.. you won't believe what comes out.. for the chrome i use "belgom" and a polishing machine. preserves the chrome aswell.. yes a lot of elbowgrease.. Hope you can take the rubbers off without destroying to much.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nomuken Posted February 26, 2016 Author Share #53 Posted February 26, 2016 Thanks for the advice. unfortunately some of my rubbers are already in 2-3 pieces and some of the rubber fixing bolts are completely gone because of rust. I tried belgom to, it's a terrific product. Works really well. But when there is no chrome left, there is nothing to polish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
