Yea, it looks much better with the nose on it, fills out the graphics much better. your going to have to put the ole blue tape on at the drags or clear stick on stuff to keep the chipping down.

Nice posi marks in the garage!

It looks great, are you bringing it to dyno day? I really don't see the bass boat connection, but it's a funny reference anyway.

Those are some big *** tires on the back, are they 50's?
