May 2005	Trunk and bumpers
		I added the trunk latch, license plate holder and light to the trunk. This was pretty easy with the template provided.  I don't have it wired up inside yet but don't expect any problem there.
		Okay the rear bumper got installed but I had to drop the gas tank AGAIN!.  Note to myself: Next time remember to use the longer bolts needed for this bumper installation.  Last month I dropped the gas tank to install the chrome bumper hoop without looking at instructions. I learned that those nudge bars require longer bolts so I had to drop the gas tank again. Dropping the gas tank is not hard. I think I was more frustrated I did not know better. Who needs instructions?  No one if you like to do the same thing multiple times.  lol Note: I used some extra washers for spacers on those nudge bars.
		I put on the front bumper using the longer bolts that I took from the rear bumper. I also used a couple of extra washers on those nudge bars. I also had to cut away some of the aluminum panels so I could get a wrench on those bolts. Open wide.... looks like the car is going to eat you up.
