Charles, I did buy the bumperettes from Kirk Evans.  I agree with you - obviously, it is a personal choice about that - I've seen some full bumpers that look really good.
My wife wants the word PANTERA on the rocker panels - that's my next decision.  Her thinking is everyone always says, "Beautiful car.  What is it?"   --Bill
