How to Install a 'Snug Fit' Rear Bumper

[@AlfsMustangGarage]

This actually fits surprisingly well for an aftermarket fiberglass bumper!

[@AndyKruseChannel]

Thanks Brotha!!

[@Skipro5881]

This bumper with black stripes and twillight turqoise would be perfect

[@AndyKruseChannel]

I'll keep that in mind. :)

I had a 1968 Mustang in High School back in 1985, got rear ended while stopped at a traffic light, that stock bumper didn't do 💩...so I'd do the fiberglass bumper too...your cars looking great👍

[@AndyKruseChannel]

Yeah, I never thought the stock unit would do much anyways. :)

[@johnclemans7802]

Should look nice when finished. Factory chrome rear bumper has a slight bow or arch in them. It follows the rear contour of the car.

[@AndyKruseChannel]

Yes, I think it should look nice too. :)

[@rookie__pilot]

Great video, you’ve convinced me to do it on mine 👍🏻

[@AndyKruseChannel]

You should! :)

[@craigs1953]

Another great add-on video Andy. Great job. But I am curios, why have you not applied for a Collector Vehicle license plate.

[@AndyKruseChannel]

Thanks! Those collector plates are low on my priority list. :)

[@benhall71]

Keep it up Andy, you are progressing well!

[@AndyKruseChannel]

Thanks, will do!

[@ML-dl1cp]

That looks pretty slick. Once it's painted it'll be really sharp.

[@AndyKruseChannel]

Thanks, I hope so! :)

[@FaustKnight]

Looks sick! You could probably shave the bottom of that fender extension a little so the curve matches the bumper. Or, fill in that section to make it solid.

[@AndyKruseChannel]

We'll see what my paint guy says. :)

[@franswijnands4022]

looks good

[@AndyKruseChannel]

Thanks. :)

[@SlowInFastOut1776]

Looks good, can’t wait to see what color you decide to paint it! I’m WAY behind on my videos, but there may be some noise in the garage in a couple weeks.

[@AndyKruseChannel]

Can't wait!

[@FE428Power]

I think Guardsman Blue with Wimbledon white stripes!

[@FE428Power]

Sweet!

[@AndyKruseChannel]

Thanks! :)

[@primoog770]

Keep it up love the videos

[@AndyKruseChannel]

Thanks! Will do!

[@5798Mike]

Great job
So what color did u pick?

[@AndyKruseChannel]

Thanks.
Super Secret. :)

[@eds6537]

Sick!!

[@AndyKruseChannel]

No, I'm felling better now. :)

[@goldysgarage189]

a cosmetic question - are you going to paint the new rear bumper to match the body colour or are you going to paint it silver or chrome and then what about rear taillight bezels? - leave chrome or? By the way - quite a weight reduction with the glass bumper I'll bet.

[@AndyKruseChannel]

Yes, the new bumper will get painted. Tail light bezels will stay chrome. :)

[@jerrymoore6227]

Nice 👍

[@AndyKruseChannel]

Thanks ✌

[@harold.degand]

Where do you buy your parts ? Cj pony parts, mustang unlimited ?

[@AndyKruseChannel]

All of the above. Sometimes a sale will drive me to a site, sometimes it's a specific brand or style I want that a particular site has. Sometimes it's quick shipping and excellent customer service. And sometimes I want a very specific part that only one places makes/sells.
Popular sites beyond your list are Summit Racing, Cobranda, NPD, Rock Auto, Kentucky Mustang, LMR, Eddie Motorsports, and Mustangs to Fear. Then there are specific sites that don't sell a large list of parts, but either sell their own parts or a select type of part. Places like that are Ididit, Quick Performance, Mike Maier, TCP, Global West, Street or Track, Cortex, etc. This is obviously not all of them, but you can see there are lots of places. Of course there's always places like Amazon, eBay, and FB Marketplace for good deals too. :)

When are you hoping to get it into paint, and how long will it take to paint? A friend of mine was getting his 67 fastback painted and it took a year.

[@AndyKruseChannel]

Yes and not sure. :)

[@dbfire6787]

Hi Andy, what do you use to film your videos?

[@AndyKruseChannel]

I put it in the description of all my videos. :)

[@swooshdave]

Thanks a lot… you just cost me money again. 😂

[@AndyKruseChannel]

You're welcome 😊

[@kdog622]

Are you going to paint the bumper to match the rest of the car?

[@AndyKruseChannel]

Yes.

[@kdog622]

Selling your old bumper?

[@AndyKruseChannel]

Not at this time. :)
