Well, I'm probably going to be building my own bumper, but if those are with their brackets too than I'm sold.

Didn't you hit a tree (pole?) Going pretty fast?

Ouch. Yeah. Sold. I could probably make them but couldn't do the bends down to sway bar mounts.

It'll save time too...

Would an o2 sensor be causing bad mileage and lack of power?

Any engine codes? You could see if an local parts store has a obd1 scanner, I have a basic obd2 scanner. Do you just have 1 o2 sensor? I can find you a link to manually testing them if you have a multimeter.
