When I got my car I had no money but I did have a second Harley in the garage to trade, my only must-haves were drivable, and no bubble butts. The pop-out rear glass was a must, in fact I bought the glass from an earlier car while I was waiting for mine to ship. Now, AFTER paint, the rounded-off rear bumper bothers me, so I have an '81-'82 rear bumper waiting on the shelf. If that doesn't appease me, I will be doing new rear quarters with flares, and flares up front. And of course that comes with ANOTHER re-paint. That's why I stress to Scooby, make sure you will be happy before you invest a ton of work into a bolt-on rear clip. Don't get me started on how I wished I'd put in overdrive when the engine was out, since the old engine blew the very next day after paint. Corvettes are fun!

The biggest expense at this point is my time... and God knows I have plenty of it right now, then second is the 3D print, which will run me around $200 as I have my own printer. The main consumption of money will come when it comes time to make the plug, so I have plenty of time to back out before I get to the plug.
I'm in the process of build my own C3 rear bumper conversion in fiberglass, how very, there are a few measurements I'm in need of and I'm hoping someone out there may have the numbers I'm looking for.
