I decided to go almost completely monochromatic on the car. Hornet's don't have very much chrome or stainless trim so painting the bumpers would make it almost like a 77 AMX without the Targa bar. Also the cost and labor of making the bumpers perfect for chroming after shaving the bumper bolts will be more than the budget allows. I am into this 500$ car for around 14,000$ now. I originally budgeted 5,000$ for the project My next project for the car will be stripping the paint off the 77 AMX flairs and painting them the body color. That should take less time than the door sill restoration. "Doc"
