I hope you get good news on your heath concerns and bumper.

Maybe some one here from the Phily area knows that shop and can go over there for you.

Jerry had your half bumper right there as we talked and explained that the original chrome had begun to peel. He said he would call you today (apparently he has) and he would make your piece a priority job as of Monday. I know these things take awhile but your piece should be in steady motion starting Monday. Email me through the forum if it goes past 2 weeks, good luck.
