Which one would you have chosen?

123 Euro bumpers or mint chrome bunts with new Michelins? It was a hard choice since it was late in the day and I only had $120 on me,I new the junkyard was due to close in an hour and my mind had to be made up fast.The bumpers were mint with no cuts or dings ,I have seen one set before but not nearly this clean .I went for the bumpers since their was alot of lookers on them but no wrenches yet.Pulled the set and aganized over leaving those beautiful rims and tires behind, they were gone the next morning ,alot of people had their eye on them ,I just dont think they had the tools to take them the day I was there .I wont go to the yard anymore without carrying at least $200 .

You did right, good w123 euro bumpers are really hard to find and you got 'em real cheap, besides.
