    Nice, did you do the roll on paint method? I've been thinking of doing my festy that color next time I paint it

      Excellent find. You need to test drive it. 2,847 miles to be exact, and I promise I will buy you dinner when you get there, if you can arrive at the exact coordinates of 35.863477, -78.569769 by October 2nd. You have my word.

        No, I used a cheapo Harbor Freight gun. I just posted in the $50 paint job thread if you want to see it. http://www.fordfestiva.com/forums/showthread.php?t=4102

          White festies are my favorites! I have a factory white front bumper cover in fairly decent shape if you are looking for one.

            I've never heard of a bumper cover. Could you send me a pic please?

              It's the black thing... it's just the bumper minus the foam insulation.
              Perucho has a factory white one in good condition. Soooo you should go get it haha

                See the black (well, what used to be black) plastic bumper skin your car has? Well, exactly the same but white The actual bumper part is a piece of steel channel and some foam inserts behind the plastic cover.

                  Oh I was thinking like a leather bra or something. No thank you. I like the black bumper I do want a wind splitter though.

                          For some reason I don't think you are that much into it

                            Lol I put the price mega high so no one will buy it but, if the opportunity comes I have to take it. I love it though and get sad thinking about selling it!

                            I bet you already saw my post of selling the engine and tranny. It's to fund the engine swap

                            Edit: I deleted it now because SOMEONE whose name shall not be mentioned Almost made me cry when I thought about what would happen if I really had to sell it.
