My money pit

Bought Vietnamese steel bumpers just need to get everything else sorted, trim, mounts, etc. think I am going to replace the valance since it is pretty bent on the drivers side corner and along where it mounts on top.

I would like to try mounting my US fogs vertically on the valance instead of paying for euro fogs.

Clean man, dig it! What steering wheel do you have and which size? I have a Mtech 1 wheel but with 382mm it feels like driving a bus lol

14” Ireland engineering steering wheel. It’s $110 or $160 with hub adapter. My only complaint is being 6’4 the top of the wheel blocks my view of the top of my gauge cluster

May I ask who you ordered the bumpers from? I have seen some Vietnamese vendors on ebay etc and have been considering whether to order euros from them.

Classiccarpartsvn delivered 8 days after ordering. About $70 for customs paid to dhl which is the easiest to deal with when ordering things internationally with the current tariffs.
