This is the slant nose kit Im adapting on to it. Im going to modify it to keep the signal humps. I had a stock hood and headlight covers but they were gutted of light parts and sealed shut.

Interesting. I think I like it. Keeping the signal humps but still updating the front end, nicely done.
Added a little carbon fiber and a layer of glass to help fend off cone damage. Fenders are / were thin race only units.

Looks great! I like the glass work, looks really good. I think the front end will turn out really nice too.
Im ready to do some "bonding" with the fenders this weekend.

Now that's what I call a WHALE tail. Sure it won't cause you to do wheeleys?
What a great project for you and your boys! Are they getting into it? I now understand your other thread asking about the fresh air ducting from the PO.
Good job!

During this part Im keeping the boys away I dont want them breathing all the fumes and dust. I do have dust masks for them but they take it off as fast as I make them put it on. This is the good side will not need much more work
