YOU SHOULD SHIM BETWEEN FRAME HORN AND INSIDE OF FENDER TO ELIMINATE ANY SPACE, SO TIGHTENING BOLT DOES NOT APPLY PRESSURE AND BUCKLE FENDER OR CRACK PAINT.

Nothing is 100% "should be" with Cords. But generally ---

- thin rubber pad between bumper block and fender.
- Cad plated bolt (cap screw) and lock washer.

810 Cord Final Assembly was created by Patrick E. Hart

I am ready to install the front bumper and wonder: 1) whether there should be a rubber pad between the bumper blocks and fenders to reduce the chance of paint cracking; and 2) whether the bolts that attach the bumper to the stub frame and lock washers should be painted or chrome or cad plated.

Thanks for the help. Pat
