explorer sport pics

Not a very revealing pic, but I took this the day I bought it, before I took it on a 1000+ mile road trip back up to Massachusetts for the summer.

I have big plans, but paying for college comes first. Hopefully I can sneak in some shackles soon.

Edit: hmmm so i guess I can't upload photos, so just imagine the automotive embodiment of John Wayne, Burt Reynolds, and Clint Eastwood, and that's pretty much what it looks like.

Double Edit: Alright cool it works, but the picture is just bad. Actually it's a filter.. yeah that's what it is. Not a terrible camera, a sweet vintage filter.

Triple Edit: Alright this is getting ridiculous for a first post, but this picture should be much better.

Before and After
Did you paint the inside of the corners?
I literally went through 3 sets of corners trying to open them. The plastic is so thin that they crack very easily. Just wondering what you did for the corners.
 






here is a pic of the rims I want to put on my blue explore sport they are on this guys Ranger

Yes I did, I technically went through two sets of corners, Thankfully the lenses I wanted to use weren't the ones I melted. I think I threw them in the oven at 250 but kept a super close eye on them, especially after I melted the one lens. The corners were actually easier for me to get apart than the headlights themselves. Just took a bit of patience
 


















It's a cut down Sport Trac bumper
 












Thanx man I'd intended it for my 98 but never ended up using it so gave it to a buddy really looks better than the 99 plastic bumper
 






I know what you mean. I pulled my plastic bumper off and threw on the upper half of a 97 metal bumper

That's what I intended for his truck , but when he saw the cut down one he made the choice,nice truck btw
 


















Thank you. I actually found them a few days after on Wheel Replicas. But maannnn I searched high and low for those things. They are very nice
