Default Project Envy - Body Progress

It may look like a step back sicne I have taken the front bumper and air damming off but, its actually a step forward. For those of you who can remember, I could NOT get the passenger side hedlight to butt up agaisnt the fender, but now I've almsot got it. it was over 3/4 inch away but now its only a fingers gap away.

I also thought about how heavy the car was so I took out a lot of uneeded things. washer reseivior, emissions ****, alllll kinds of little things.



This is what I want to fix

This is how it SHOULD look

Keep it on topic. He's got all the right in the world to post a progress thread. If you don't care about the thread, stay out of it.

Its pretty cool your doing all the stuff yourself. I wish we had a lift like yours, would have made my last project of swapping rear ends a lot easier. It would make everything easier actually I think I may have my dad talked into a 2 post, so hopefully we get it.

Good luck with the car, can't wait to see it when its done.
