The newest surprise is that they've ground down the bumper guards and front turn signals to bare metal, to give a slightly shiny look instead of the dull gray paint that the former worker had put on them. Wish they had asked me first cause I don't want to lose any more metal than i have to.

Thomas I still have a NOS set of front turn signals and bumper guards that I would be willing to sell you. I had left the box of replacement parts at the shop before the fire and they said that you were not interested so I picked them up. It's a good thing I did as the fire was about a month later.
