Hi, friends!
I am restoring 68 Fastback (and it's not easy to do in Russia!). The body shop try-fitted the rear bumper and there's a big problem - the bumper is wider than the body. The bumper doesn't align with q-panel extensions (it doesn't match the shape and it extends beyond outer surface of q-panel). I ordered bumper and q-panel extensions at Year One. Did anybody encountered the same issue? What is the reason for this misalignment - poor quality of bumper or poor job of body shop? I appreciate all opinion - I don't really really know what to do. To order another bumper from different catalog? But I am in Russia - what if the new bumper doesn't fit too?
