That's the easy part /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif The important part I'd like to see how you did it is at the wheelwell opening...So, break out the camera and start snapping /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I made a jig for when I did the rear bumper and it lines up perfect for the front bumper /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

The headlights are just USDM /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif I wish they were JDM.

For folks that really want the JDM look? Also, the different H series bulbs that are available for them? I believe you can buy these bulbs in a different light spectrum than the stock 9xxx stock bulbs as well..

UPDATE......

Got the chance to work on it a lil bit more tonight and got pretty far. I still need to trim the wheel well up a little bit cause its a little to long, then just throw a couple more bolts on the side of the bumper and it will be done.

I snapped a quick pic of the progress.

I've snapped quite a few pics of the progress. As soon. As I get it all fixed up, I'll do a How-To.

well done sir! I look forward to seeing the mechanism that holds it in place as well as the newly shorted backspacing in-front of the radiator support.
