Tommy, did you think about molding the wings west piece to the front bumper? That's what I'm having done to mine, it looks like one piece and flows a little better....just a thought.

I didn't want to say it, but my favorite parts of the firebird is the smooth lines of no headlights. I love the idea of no flip ups, but I like mine the way they are.

Well I'm off to Afghan for a year next Sunday so mine will be painted when I am gone.

Plans are new top, cage, paint, hood and cooling system then I am going to build a nice turbo kit for it again when I get home.
