datsunaholic Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 Well, that's the bumper that got put on by the dealer. They were more or less required to add them. I'm going to take the one off my '76 KC... and put it on my other '76 KC. Quote Link to comment

BlakeZula Posted November 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2009 does my front end look messed up? it looks bent as hell. but im not sure. how would i go about fixing that? stop. hammer time? Quote Link to comment
pharouh Posted November 6, 2009 Report Share Posted November 6, 2009 Yeah your valance (below the bumper) is a little bent up. That's an easy fix. Replacement parts are pretty cheap and easy to get. Quote Link to comment
Guest Rick-rat Posted November 6, 2009 Report Share Posted November 6, 2009 That may be an ugly bumper, but it sure saved my truck when I got rear ended, clean it up and some paint and it will look pretty good Quote Link to comment
