MARLIN--- You always impress me. Your bumper project is coming along nicely with a lot of intentional thought and planning. The really cool thing is this specific thread is a start-to-finish documentary, especially when comparing the very early postings to the most recent upgrades (quite an improvement).

As I mentioned in an earlier posting; since the front cladding is permanently gone (sold), most of us are just waiting to see how you are going to "blend" the front bumper design in with the empty void of space underneath the headlights, etc. Perhaps that is where the "expanded metal" treatment will be applied.

When you get ready to paint, maybe consider a "Bright Red" or better yet a combo of "Black-N-Red" (Red Bumper with Black Painted Expanded Metal grill inserts). It would look great with the Proton color and basically say, "Hey, here I come; get the hell outa' my way!!!" LOL.
