Great find for a great price.. Bumper is going to cost you though!!! :lol: I think the Mid bumpers are somewhat difficult to source, BUT for what you got the car for, you can afford to throw $40 at a bumper. I'd fabricate a look alike from some kydex... Wish I'd come across a Mid for that price. :)

Sure it is, but the radiation heat is still going straight to the print and will burn that, no???
