hey guys,

trying to decide if i want to rechrome the bumpers on my scamp or buy fibreglass ones and paint them silver....i really want to save weight which is why i want glass, however this is going to be a daily so i dont know if its a good idea...what do you guys think? glass? chrome? here is what she looks like...If it makes a difference, its also getting a black hood with black dual snorkel scoop, and possible a black bumblebee stripe (i already have it but im having second thoughts about putting it on now)all opinions are welcome and i would really like to see everyone elses car that has glass bumpers as well.

Never considered painting it silver.T-5 is holding up so far,but I will need a better shifter,hard to find 3rd from 2nd.Took it out on the road course the other day,nothing broke ,had a blast and suprised a few people too.
