Re: 82 SR5 Sports Coupe in GA
Overall plan is for the car to be a fun weekend cruiser. suspension, slight motor build, wheels, cheap paint job lol.
Something like this...
I kinda like these wheels I saw on eBay. Old school aftermarket 280z wheels.

I'm gonna shave my rear bumper soon. Also gonna cut 2 coils out to ghetto drop it. Will be doing real coil overs eventually so this would be just temporary for fun!

Shaved the rear bumper. It's no professional job, but it's not bad either. Especially since I really had no idea what I was doing haha!
Started cutting:
Had to cut the bumper support to fit the newly shaped bumper cover:
Got in on after some trial and error:

Re: 82 SR5 Sports Coupe in GA
I started looking at the piece of plastic I cut from the top of the bumper and I can't believe my eyes....it makes an awesome front lip. It's scary how well it's gonna fit. That will be my next update.

The best bumper are the steel one piece bars ,but those are rare and expensive ! So you got to improvise
