    Is that from the racing dept at home depot?

    BTW, I like those "parking barbs", a dealer I worked for got alot of cars from back east and we were always painting bumpers. Seems there is almost only parallel parking back there and not enough room to do it.
    Tradition is the art of making the same mistake repeatedly, on purpose.

    I like it. I would take a peice of small stainless tubing and bend it to the shape of the bottom bumper, then attach it o the bottom inside of the lip for strength and shape
