Nice job on aligning the hood. That itself made the car look so much better.

Did you bring the bumper up or drop the hood to make it fit?

i know man, i couldnt stand it. the bumper support was broke thats why there was a huge gap, so i replaced that. and then it just took a little aligning from there.

you can find the rk sporte grill on lmperformance.com. they pretty much contour where the grill used to be and have screens. i like em a lot.

i brought the bumper up and the hood down a little.

yes you may, but first let me reply with a polite no. haha. i havent really thought about the molding, but i doubt i will do it. and im just not a fan of the slp grill. thanks for the suggestion though bud.

i think all im gonna do exterior wise is:
strano springs
rk sporte grill insert
new rims...not sure yet
new paint job, same color
69 z/28 badges
2" sunoco hood

Oh man that RKSport insert looks sweet. However it'd probably be WAY cheaper to just fill the bumper haha
