Hey Guys,
The body shop removed the headlight buckets and all metal associated with that area. (it was all crunched up anyways) The question is the support that goes from the front to the side of the inner fenders is gone. I could pull them out of my donor car, I could just make a simple round bar support, or could just leave it out too.
Thanks as always

OT, but did you say "crumple energy absorption"?
I know this is a big weight hit, but a 911 driver died a couple years ago at our local track when he hit the wall and ruptured the fuel cell.
