Looks good yo! Nice find. Though any 2.5 hour drive normally wouldn't be a problem, but in a minivan I'd be going nuts.... or a prius... :rofl:

holy shit they make them with a 4.0 now
my moms 94 had a 3.8 and it was nasty
the 3.1 does the minivan no justice

actually, i did some "adjustments" tonight. i elongated the hole in the middle of the bumper cover, and trimmed the plastic above the striker release. now she's damn near flush and the gap doesn't look so bad.

If you got rid of the gap, then --------> :thumbup:

By the way, I have to drive 2.5 hours (one way) if I want to get somewhere with a population more than 20,000 people. I'm used to it.
