Ok walking again still painful but doable. so I started getting ready for fiberglass ing tonight an will have updates in about a week or two as money is a bit of an issue at this point in time since I've been on leave from work .so when money is coming back in I'll be finishing the project an making more progress again.
Will start fiberglass by tomorrow after more prep work.  Ok I'm thinking about cutting the bumper in half where the blue stops and having the bottom section stationary for easier. Removal since all that is taped up will be one complete piece plus makes it easier when separating parts later Or option two front end and hood an fenders all one complete piece but makes the process a lot harder to do. What do you guys think ?   I am also thinking about changing the side skirts and rerouting the exhaust to come out through the bottom section of the side skirt since the engine swap we are doing is a v 6 but not a major fan of that style  Or should I leave these side skirts on there???? |

the purpose of the hole in the fender is to let hot air flow out, not cold air flow in....
looking good

Looks interesting.
My only negative...is doing that to a GT4 hood...could have put some good use to that, and you could have fabbed something unique instead. |
