I would really appreciate it if you can get some more pic's of how you mounted the headlight covers, as I am planning on doing the same thing

That is a super clean build. I like the cutting of the radiator support. The new one is very nice and I like how you have the trans cooler mounted.

Yea, me too... Does someone make that or was it a custome job? It would come in handy when going to a single turbo up front.

I plan on doing something very similar when I cut the front off of my 93 to fit the S95 in there. My whole plans changed when I saw how massive it is. I really like this one as it incorporates the trans cooler in there. I may have to borrow that idea.

You could use aluminum or moly. I plan on using moly. Just notch it all, mock it up, and tack it all in place. Then, take it some where and have them TIG it all together. That's what I plan on doing as my friend has a bender and notcher at his shop.
