Open the truck? Put the key in the door and twist :lol: As for the trunk I can open it from the inside. Plus I plan to get key less with a trunk popper.

as for your bumper, one of the body guys at my work showed me a cool way to shave your bumper.

cut out a piece like you did, use a torch and heat up the plastic (don't put the flame on the plastic) and use a flat tool to melt the 2 pieces together. once it cools off it's one piece and won't crack or fall out. :)

keep up the pics!!! the sol is lookin good!

If you mean this, no mine was fine. The car luckily has minimal to no rust. Had a small bit of surface rust here, and there that I took care of already, but that was about it for rust. Now the hood that's another story lol
