Yesterday I went to pick up the blue hood I found listed online, at route 117 autoparts in MA for you NE people. They told me to check out the hood first (no u-pull on the section the car was in), and it happened to be off this very nice, complete, same color, same year SE. So needless to say I left with more than the hood. Managed to fit it all in the truck, but believe it or not it's kind of tough to fit a Bonneville hood in the Suburban. definitely tricky.
The hood alignment went pretty well, could be better but the main thing is the corners are turned down. Tried to pry them up but it didn't do anything. I didn't get a front bumper, but I think I will go back and get it soon. I didn't realize how much my front bumper had pushed down until I got the new hood/ light on. Anyone know a good DIY way to push the bumper up??
I'm don't know if I ever showed this in pictures (probably tried to avoid it lol), but the rear bumper looked like *shoot*. Here's what it was:
And here's what it is now. You might notice the final item I bought at the yard
Next time I wash it, I'm going to use my porter cable to do some correction on the hood/ trunklid, then take some glamour shots. ya like that spoiler??? I'm so happy I found a trunklid in such nice condition that was also the right color.
