They made it possible for me to accurately measure the bumpers from one of these: going on the Ranchero now that I know the width is right. $218 out the door for a pair, counting shipping. Blade bumpers FTW.

So cheap, so clean looking, and me with the ugly-ass version of the bumpers and both rusted up. How could I not? I mean, the back one doesn't completely suck:

But again, rust, and get a load of this one:

It's a SLAB. It doesn't even *match* the rear bumper, from factory. Give me an excuse like "hey, they're rusty anyway and you can make Mustang ones fit in about 15 minutes". SOLD

You just tickled 2 of my sweet spots. Falcons and Ranchero's, especially the older ones. Now I wait.

I should clarify that it'll be some time next week I'll pre-fit them, because I only just ordered. I'm going to need to build underneath valances too for front and rear, but I'm happy to do it if it'll look like I have reason to believe it will. Since I'm doing some custom work body-wise anyway - time for a change. I might mock up the valances in cardboard or something when I post the bumpers.
