J, what's the next mod here?

You get that front spoiler on there yet?

Love your car, and looking forward to seeing it around.

I did pick up the spoiler but I realized I really need to fix or replace my bumper since the center is bent up quite a bit. A new one is around $500.

Maybe we can put it on the lift at Nicks and have a few guys hang from it

You can see it right below the license plate, much more noticeable without the license plate too.

Sadly, this is all too common for our year Torinos/Ranchero. My bumper is bent up, exactly as yours is. The 'good news' most bumper shops can address that as part of the chroming process. I know Superior Polishing in San Jose includes straightening with their chrome jobs. They've brought back some majorly mangled ones that I've seen!

good to know Charles, thanks for the tip. I will try to contact them. I'll see if anyone is closer too.

Hmm. Didn't even notice that before.. I think that's because it looks to be a very nicely performed and centered symmetrical bend job.
