Put my baby back together - it was 97 F here today (hotter than the sun!), so I am ready for a nice long shower!

The new (for me/pre-owned) replacement bumper arrived today around noon in good shape via freight. Gave the inside a good scrub before mounting it up on the car. Took some juggling to get both sides seated (was doing this alone) but once the top corners were in place the rest fell right in line. After all bumper cover fasteners were in place I gave the whole thing an intense scrubbing with McGuires Paint scrubber (to remove old wax and any swirls in the clear coat) then hit it with some quick wax before bolting the trim stuff up (bumperettes, license plate).

It actually looks better than it did before the accident. Well, except for the gash in that back wheel...
