Re: SON OF A B*^#&!!!
Oh - did I not get back to you? I'm so sorry.. I wasn't trying to be rude or
ungrateful I thought I did.
I've been up to my a$$ in alligators lately.
Hubs says he is going to build me an ARB style bumper with an integrated
mount - AND - recessed lights. Whooo hoo!
I know just what I want and he's going to make it happen for me.
So now, I'm stuck tapping my toe on the floor waiting impatiently LOL.
I know it will be fine - the paint that is.
When I brought my Jeep home I found that it had an issue with the paint on
doors. Where the window frame is welded to the door on both sides the paint
had cracked and there was a wee little bit of rust. I had them take care of
it and they did a great job. I'm scheduled to take it in on Thursday for
inspection and setting an appointment to have it fixed.
I am SO lucky to have a great dealership to work with. Serra in Jackson TN
I'll bet that your dad was sick, I would have been.
I know the guys in the shop must have been too. What a mess to have to clean
up. HAH... "Give 'er a lacquer thinner bath boys!"

Hey Kate,
Sorry for the pain you are going through. I can remember when my Dad
was rebuiilding his hot rod, a car I drove when I was a young buck,
(73 nova), he had it painted and the damn car never cured even after
30 days. He had to take it back and the little bugger had to be
sanded to bare metal. I can remember what my Dad's face looked like
after he had invested thousands upon thousands, thinking his bay was
f'ed.. Luckily the shop made it right. It still looks phenomenal to
this day. You'll be OK, no worries.
BTW, do you still want to the measurements on the warn mount? I had
never heard back and was wondering if you were buying from a vendor or
were doing the whole bumper from scratch. Take care,
ulb
